The pandemic has canceled our vacation plans, forced us back to our homes, and locked us inside for good. The only place we can travel to now is the grocery store, and depending on where you live, the local government may have placed limits on that as well. Now I’m not complaining or anything; that’s just the way life is at the moment. However, sitting within your four walls does get pretty monotonous pretty fast. So let’s take a trip, shall we?
Before you answer, let me say this—no, I’m not challenging you to a game of GeoGuessr. But I’ve got something just as immersive. Just as exhilarating.
Australian zookeeper Chad Staples, who is running an entire wildlife park, is posting photos of his wild job to his social media accounts, and it’s clear that he is koalified for the job. But the images not only introduce his everyday responsibilities. They also allow us to get to know animals we might not meet otherwise. Ever. So continue scrolling and take a look at Chad’s pics!
