Zoo Vet Book

Humorous, light hearted mixture of tales and autobiographical memories of Matt Brash's work, both at Flamingo Land Zoo and in general practice. It describes how he got into filming for ITV, and the relationships he has forged with both the camera and the people behind the camera. Matt Brash is the star of the Yorkshire TV series Zoo Vet at Large. 'Good day in the office dear?' is a particularly loaded question when asked of Matt Brash. A typical 'day in the office' could include escaping from angry, disorientated bears, dodging poo hurled by obstinate, grumpy chimpanzees and avoiding massive loss of blood at the hands (well, teeth) of vindictive hamsters. Lives and limbs, animals' and Matt's, are always at risk. This is an enlightening and colourful journey through Matt's life and work with weird and wonderful exotic wild animals, from tarantulas to tapirs, birds to bears, madams to motorbikers.Read More
