Elvia first began her career working with animals through doggy daycare centers and dog training centers. At Randall Oaks, Elvia is the one behind all the animal diets that you see being fed out on a daily basis when she works. She also aids in daily full cleanouts of enclosures. Her favorite animals to work with are our red foxes!

📣 Zookeeper Spotlight: Meet October’s zookeeper spotlight, Dayja Berry!

Dayja is one of our zoo educators and pony ride attendants who has been here for the past 3 years. If you attend any of her chats, you will learn many things; she always does a great job educating the public about our animals.

Dayja says that she has never felt so motivated, passionate, and fulfilled in her line of work before working at a Randall Oaks Zoo. She greatly values the opportunity to educate the public and care for our animals.

When Dayja is not working here, she is an animal care technician at Anderson Humane where she takes shelter dogs out for fun adventures outside. Needless to say, her favorite animal here at the zoo is Frosty, our sulphur crested cockatoo who she looks forward to seeing every day.

Thank you Dayja for all of your hard work and dedication. We are so happy to have you apart of the team!
