Does anyone know who this woman is? She is very unprofessional and unpleasant.
She isn't an employee of the university.
She isn't a veterinarian, zoologist, or biologist.
She isn't a professor.
So who is she? We have seen here around the exhibit since these 2 lions were cubs. She has consistently been ruining trips for children and barking orders at visitors for years now.
I suspect she is part of the Carroll family who donated the money for the newest lion enclosure.
Isn't this a safety issue? Shouldn't the care and implementation of the lions schedule be handled by a trained professional?
I believe this could be a case of nepotism at it's finest, and the citizens of downtown Florence will be the ones at risk if anything were to happen due to the daily release of the lions by someone who has no real experience or credentials working with big cats.
