Arthur Zolly - Intern

“During my 4-month Snake Farm internship, I had an incredible learning experience. The team at the farm taught me invaluable knowledge about Kenyan reptiles and the proper care needed to ensure their safety. From the very beginning, I was immersed in understanding the different species and their unique characteristics. Thanks to the team’s guidance, I quickly gained the skills to care for these impressive and potentially dangerous animals.The internship provided a well-rounded approach to learning, starting with a solid theoretical foundation and practical experience with non-venomous species. This allowed me to gradually transition into training with venomous species. The team’s commitment to safety and their step-by-step method created an optimal learning environment.

 I had the opportunity to work with some truly remarkable reptiles, including cobras, vipers, mambas, and pythons. Being able to assist in their care was an incredibly rewarding experience. Additionally, I thoroughly enjoyed working with other fascinating species such as Monitor lizards, Crocodiles, and Tortoises.

 Overall, my time at the Snake Farm internship was invaluable. I gained a wealth of knowledge and practical skills that have prepared me to continue working with these incredible creatures. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity and highly recommend this internship to anyone interested in reptiles and their conservation.”
