INSTEAD of relying on VCE results like many other teenagers,
Swan Hill College graduate Zac Purtill is placing his future in the hands of
some curious critters.
He recently acquired two freshwater crocodiles in
preparation for his plans to start up a native animal education program in Swan
Hill, providing hands-on demonstrations at local schools and private events such
as children’s parties.
He plans to get his demonstrator’s license — which
has a minimum age of 18 — as soon as possible, and has booked himself in for a
demonstrator’s course in late January.
