[iluvsmyreptiles]

Has anyone seen the article about Wes Mannion (Director of Aust. Zoo)?
My friend read it in a magazine but can't remember which one, and now i want to find it to read it. Apparently it was in a recent article.
Please help!

I just rang them up and I am told it is a reprint of an old article from about 3 years ago. They think New Idea might be the publisher.

Plenty to find about wes but not easy to find mag articles. what was it about specifically? [apart from wes himself]

It's very, very strange to see websites/fansites about people you work with and know.

I've seen websites with people infatuated with reptile keepers at Australia Zoo...very hard to comprehend...

Yeah, It's a crazy world

 

[iluvsmyreptiles]

Zoe- thanks heaps.
Wattso Apparently it's just about his work etc. I don't know entirely ..that's why i want the article, to find out

 

[africancichlidau]

I think it was about him taking a child into the croc enclosure with him at feeding time

 

[iluvsmyreptiles]

Very funny Wes wouldn't do that...in public at least

 

[zoe]

nah it was about him getting mauled by a croc at the park - got pics of his leg will all the stitches from where the chunks got ripped out. not sure if it was the same croc that steve took his kid in with.

All i can say is that the media is full of crap.
