Meet Di who has been at SEA LIFE Melbourne for 20 years!
"The variety of animals that I get to work with and interact with everyday, learning about all the marine life we have at the aquarium, and of course getting to dive with them as well. And the added bonus of getting to work with a great bunch of people that share my similar interests and love of animals."
Meet Rosie the Penguin Keeper
"Penguin Keeper had never been on my radar since they are such a unique bird and up until that point I had mostly worked with parrots and raptors. They are easily the most interesting species I have cared for and everyday has been crazy and wonderful getting to know these birds."
