In a Zoo you need a curator, they're the person in charge of what animals the zoo works with. At Wild Planet Trust we have a curator for each animal department, Mammals, Birds and Lower Vertebrate and Invertebrates (LVI). In this Episode of 'So You Want To Work In A Zoo?' Matt and Ollie are chatting to John Meek, the person in charge of our LVI department.  

Previously John was a keeper, deciding on that career when he was only 8 years old, a head keeper and even curator at Newquay Zoo before he started looking after LVI across both Trust Zoos, Newquay and Paignton. In the discussion, they touch on moving animals, collection planning, conservation projects, returning animals to their country of origin and the classic question... What's you favourite animal?
