    Thank you for watching my videos! This channel is dedicated to animal education and improving the lives of captive animals.
    Here’s little about me!
    My name is Meghan Arriola and I live in Texas with my husband Jaime, where I dedicate my time to taking care of exotic and domesticated animals on my farm. We run a rescue and sanctuary for animals like alpacas, birds and reptiles. I do animal education presentations for groups and schools. Our alpacas also do events where we are able to teach people about these unique animals. I have used service dogs for medical needs for over 10 years and I am an advocate for assistance animals and mental health awareness.
    I am an animal educator that brings science related ideas to an audience from around the world by presenting fun and interesting topics in a family friendly way. Animals touch our lives in unique ways everyday as simply being our pets and companions, but how can we make their lives equally as special now that they live in captivity? My CZcams channel and blog explore ways to meet this goal by tackling things like animal behavior, human-animal relationships and veterinary medicine. Animal science is a great way to teach people of all ages that education is fun and nerdy is cool.
    My previous animal related work experience includes working in veterinary clinics, private zoos, training horses and volunteer work in wildlife rehabilitation, rescue/foster/adoption programs and therapeutic horsemanship for children with disabilities.
    When I am not working with animals, I am working at the health care clinic owned by my husband Jaime and I, where we provide services to low income, minority neighborhoods. We have been on the frontlines fighting covid19. I also have a passion for art and I am an award winning painter and photographer and published author. I am naturally very introverted but I am extroverted about sharing my passions and doing my part to make the world a better place!

    I have been researching for quite some time and you were the first CZcams channel I came across and I have been hooked ever since. When my husband retires I want to have a hobby farm and I am extremely interested in Alpaca, and I really want to do extensive research beforehand so I know what I’m getting myself into and can provide a wonderful environment for Alpaca. Anyway thanks so much for all of your videos I thoroughly enjoy them all 😀

    Fifty five years ago when I was a young teen in a boys prep school alpaca sweaters were a must. (you think girls are fussy about their cloths, take a look inside a boys school) These sweaters had buttons halfway up the front and came in a variety of colors. Every boy had at least one drawer full of such sweaters.
