Misadventures Of A Zoo Keeper

For over twenty years comedy writer Bill Naylor penned scripts for many TV and radio shows, comedy actors and comedians. Including Les Dawson, Russ Abbot, Kenny Everett and "The Two Ronnies." But he also had a parallel career working in zoos and with wildlife. Here he gives a humorous account of his experiences as a zoo man following in the tradition of Gerald Durrell and The James Herriot. The theme is animals behaving badly - animal people behaving madly. Encounters between exotic animals, and the dedicated, but often quirky and eccentric 'animal people' whose job it is to wait on them beak and hoof. Woven through the narrative are little known facts and first hand observations. But even the reader with only a passing interest in the creatures that flutter or slither across the pages, will still find it funny and entertaining.
