In this episode Ryne and Ayrton sit down with Hayley to chat about her passion for Keeper Development — a topic close to the heart of anyone working in animal care. As a fellow SAAKA committee member alongside the hosts, Hayley shares her perspective on what keeper development really means, why investing in people is just as important as caring for animals, and how strong professional communities help keepers grow, learn, and thrive throughout their careers.The conversation then takes a fun turn with a quick-fire acronym quiz, unpacking some of the key organisations that support animal professionals around the world — including IMATA, IZE, ICZ, EAZA, SAAKA, ABMA, and IAATE. From training and standards to networking and education, these associations play a vital role in shaping the future of animal care.A great episode for keepers at any stage of their journey — and a reminder that developing people is essential to developing animal care.
In this episode of Animal Talk Podcast, Ryne and Ayrton dive into the world of scheduling — the good, the bad, and the unintended consequences.They unpack how schedules can be incredibly beneficial for us as keepers, trainers, and managers: bringing structure, efficiency, and sanity to busy days. But they also challenge a big assumption, are our rigid schedules always good for the animals in our care?From predictable routines to time pressures, Ryne and Ayrton explore how human-driven schedules can sometimes clash with natural behaviours, welfare needs, and individual animals. This is the first part of a deeper conversation that asks an important question: who are our schedules really serving?A thoughtful, honest chat that sets the tone for rethinking routine, for people and animals alike.

What if the story of adoption held both rescue and rupture at the very same time? We sit down with Ayrton Beatty, who was placed for adoption after three months in foster care, to talk candidly about identity, attachment, and why language like “placed” instead of “given up” can change how a life is understood. Ayrton walks us through learning the painful truth of their origins, navigating sealed records, and reaching out to a birth mother who carried her own trauma—and how compassion sometimes means choosing not to force contact that others may not be ready for.Across our conversation, we unpack the science of early attachment and the higher risk of mental health challenges among adoptees, including borderline personality disorder and PTSD. Ayrton shares what therapy has looked like in practice, from “all inclusive” counseling to surreal nightmares, and how trust becomes a skill rebuilt over time after abuse. We also explore the reality of medical unknowns: what happens when a clinician asks for family history you don't have, how a medication triggered Long Q-T Syndrome, and the vigilance required when genetic information is missing. Along the way, DNA testing complicates and enriches identity—German and Jewish ancestry within an Irish-rooted adoptive family—proving that belonging can be layered without being false.This is a nuanced, humane portrait of adoption that holds joy and grief together. You'll hear why Ayrton still believes adoption saves lives, even as it leaves scars—and how humor, clear words, and steady support can help an adoptee feel seen. If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who needs nuance, subscribe for more thoughtful stories, and leave a review to help others find the show.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bereaved-but-still-me--2108929/support.
