i always enjoy the meet the keeper talks at our zoo. my kids are surprised when i walk away saying something like "i did not know that some frogs can jump 40 times their body length" (just an example) but my question to you is this, in reality, wouldn't you plan out your talk to speak to all levels of knowledge? granted, you could get real technical with a group of fellow students, or a bunch of us frog folk. but what about the father and his 10 year old son that are sitting front row? remember, you would actually be talking to people who, like me, don't know a darned thing......lol that's who i would gear the talk and the info therein towards

btw, if you are serious about zookeeping in the herp dept (saw that in another of your posts), then get over to dendroboard and get with a guy named Ed. that's his screen name "Ed". he's a big wig in the herp dept at the Philly Zoo, and from what i am told, one of the top guys in the dart world. i'm sure he can give you much insight into every aspect of your rotation
