What an inspiring weekend at the annual Chester Zoo Youth Summit! It was amazing to meet so many passionate young people looking forward to a career in conservation and also hear from those who have already started.

A couple of great key note speakers too with and telling us about their careers and also talking about the role of social media.

I also had the honor of presenting myself too! All about Chester Zoos conservation work and experiences from my field trip to India!

Male and female tiger getting acquainted. This was definitely one of the most amazing parts of my trip seeing this pair interact and we got very lucky to even see them mating, there may be some tiny tiger feet there soon!

Gotta protect your skin!

Even the largest animal on land needs sun cream! Despite their looks elephants have sensitive skin, which they need to protect from the sun. Rather than sun cream they use dust and mud to look after their skin.
On average an elephants skin is around 2.5cm thick although in some places it can reach 4cm, their iconic ears however have the thinnest skin.

Puffins lay a single egg in April/May time and then sit on it in their burrow nest for around 6 weeks. Puffling's will fledge at night to stay safe before returning the following year. At 5 or 6 years old they with form a breeding pair who they reunite with every year.
