ALONGSIDE RUNNING HER OWN DANCE business, Tani Gill enjoys engaging visitors with the collection at her local zoology museum in Cambridge.
Where do you volunteer?
I am a visitor engagement volunteer at the David Attenborough Building at the Museum of Zoology, Cambridge University. We are encouraged to choose and specialise in discussing our favourite animal, which for me is the Asian elephant. Recently I have been involved with the Discover Incredible Insects at Trumpington Meadows Museum Of Zoology events. We showed members of the public an exciting range of insects - my personal favourite was the sphinx moth.

Jump Around - Bagheera Kiplingi - The acrobatic spider with a predilection for veggie food
Spiders eat flies, right? everyone knows that the 45,000 or so spiders in the world are all obligate carnivores, more or less â eating other animals, mainly invertebrates. Nature, however, loves an exception, and one particular spider missed out on that ecological memo. It goes by the wonderful scientific name of Bagheera kiplingi, and its claim to fame is that its diet is â at least mostly â vegetarian.
Female of the Species - Zebras - A strong sisterhood is key to staying safe
Zebras are masters of confusion. Their collective noun is âa dazzleâ, which is fitting since their bodies and behaviour have been surprising scientists for centuries.
See It, Save It? - Wildlife tourism can be a powerful ally in protecting nature - but it can also harm it. We weigh up the pros and cons.
The sums of wildlife travel arenât as simple as more tourists equals happier nature. How much did my visit really contribute to the conservation of Lady Liuwa and her habitat â and was that outweighed by carbon emissions from my flights? Did my presence disturb the animalsâ natural behaviour more than it reduced the threat of poaching or benefited local communities?The question of whether wildlife travel is, on balance, good for wildlife is a complex one â and thereâs no simple answer.
Can Your Really Offset Emissions? - Planning an overseas wildlife-watching trip entails facing some inconvenient truths
Imagine (or maybe you don't need to) that you hanker after the safari trip of a lifetime in sub-Saharan Africa. A 17-day tour beginning at the iconic Victoria Falls, passing through Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania, taking in some of the continentâs most wildlife-rich national parks, and ending on the lush island of Zanzibar.
