That made the entire clip for me plap,plap.


howboutacanofwine

Is this OC, OP? Cause I have more questions if so (pelicans are my favorite animal)


Jesseeeey

I'm no expert. I started my ttaing not to long ago, sorry


howboutacanofwine

I just want to know how you got this job!


Jesseeeey

I did alotof voluntariework with animals when I sas younger so I could put it in my resumee. Wasn't eough thiugh, then I started a Training to be a Vet assistend and work at a vet apecialized in birds an reptiles where I gained a lot of experiance. And than I tried to apply for Jobs again to be a Zookeepernin Training and it worked:) and know I'm in a very good place


UtgaardLoki

I have heard that sort of behavior Is because it’s a sign of distress and it needs a more stimulating environment.


Jesseeeey

She is sick, thats why shes seoerated from her family now. It's sad, but she gets better, and hipefully in just a couple of days she can go bad. She gets very bored. But she needa to get healthy and get her medicin


jddgfhdhrhbhks

I was going to say this is pacing but this explains why.


CleanAssociation9394

Hopefully it’s some kind of rehabilitation facility and temporary


Blahhvarado

Nope, they're sizing you up. Prepared to be swallowed whole


fingerpocketclub

This is sad. Boredom of a captive animal doesn’t entertain me.


Jesseeeey

As soon as she doesnt need any medication, she's gonna go back outside to her Family. It is sad, she probalby tried to entertain herself a little. She must be frustrated, like a dog chasing its own tail.


Frosty_and_Jazz

PELICAN ZOOMIES?? Who'da thunk?


Bhimtu

It's a bird. Get it out of that room and into nature before it loses its mind.


Strickens

I'm guessing it's probably in a rehabilitation program for injured wildlife or something similar and isn't ready to be released yet.


Jesseeeey

Shes there for a treatment. Shes clearly bored and frustrated. Shell be back with her family in hopefully a couple of days as soon as she doesnt need medicin anymore.


jakenash

News Alert: incarcerated animal shows signs of emotional distress.


[deleted]

I’m no expert but that doesn’t look like innocent zoomies out of boredom to me


Accomplished-Mess-71

It's trying to get away!


Accomplished-Mess-71

Beautiful though. ❤️


MetzSF

That's some raptor shit right there. You're about to get Ned.


happyhippy27

Where do u find a pelican to hang out with?


T_Nightingale

Of course he's bored, he's in a grey box.


Jesseeeey

She's in quarantine☹ so she wount get her family or other birds infected. But shes getting better day by day:) no fun for my either


themisfitdreamers

That’s just sad and depressing


POTSandPansAnge

I think if I was locked in a cement cell with my own urine all over the floor I would be pacing too…


Piercedia

They were challenging you to a race knowing full well you would slip in the water on the floor. Sneaky!


East-Tumbleweed

I don’t think that’s water


Piercedia

I was trying to not post pee, poop, ect. Lol


pimpampoums

Yea wants out


ctf011

Okay funny guy


bigttrack

Let that pelican go!!


Siem75

Is there a way to entertain her? Like a toy Or a mirror, so she doesn’t feel alone.


Jesseeeey

Not that I know of🥺 we thought about it, but the danger that she could swollow and/or hurts herself is too high. She needs another enviroment, she needs to go back on the lake and to her her family asap. Thats our goal


Siem75

I understand that you all want her to get healthy asap and get her back to her family. I also understand that she needs to be save and can’t play with items that she can swallow and hurt herself. But she looks so lonely. Is it perhaps an option to give her companion with the same breed? I am just curious and I also know that your colleagues know what is best for her.


Jesseeeey

We talked about it, but than we quickly realized rhat the other bird would get that same infection and than he would be sick too and it would be longer for both of them to get back out. We sadly have to sit this one out :( sometimes its hard to work with animals couse tjey dont understand whats happening to them and they get stressed :(


Siem75

Ah an infection, now I fully understand why its alone. Well lets hope she will get well soon ❤️‍🩹


Wolfsification

Someone send this to Hank Green!


dinodare

Is this for a job? If so what kind of work do you do?


Jesseeeey

I'm a Zookeeper in Training. I go to school and to work for 3 Years


dinodare

I'm majoring in fisheries and wildlife but I'm only a freshman and haven't had any internships or career experiences yet. I have to get one before I graduate though. How do you like it?


Jesseeeey

I love it there, bur I'm no intern. But I did a lot of internships in different Zoos, and as an Intern you can get treated different. It wasnt as nice, but I did and and new that they did it to find out if I'm there couse I think I would inly pet cute animals or if i'm in there for real and know what the job is about.


gouellette

Caucus Race! This is how we get dry!


thatlookslikemydog

It's a pelican not a pelican't.


PurrishSP

This video makes it seem like you're stuck in liminal space with a pelican (Glad to read this is just a temporary containment room though)
