Today, the Safari sits down with Emily Mack to talk about grief. In a short period of time, the zoo Emily formerly worked at lost four animals on her string. To put it mildly, this was NOT a good time for Emily or her team. So we go into great detail on the relationships she had with her animals, what the losses felt like, and what living with and getting past that grief looked like to Emily.

Today, the Safari sits down with Jamie Delk in Dallas to talk a little bit about her career at the zoo, but a whole lot about the journey she has been on since she was the guest on the Season 1 finale of Rossifari. We talk about changes in her life and in her perspective that led her to walk away from zookeeping entirely, what she did in her time away from the field, and what finally drew her back into it. Along the way we joke, go into deeply personal stories, and more. Jamie's first episode was one of my most discussed episodes ever, and I'm sure this one will join the ranks as well!
