The remarkable true story of a family who move into a rundown zoo-already a BBC documentary miniseries and excerpted in The Guardian. In the market for a house and an adventure, Benjamin Mee moved his family to an unlikely new home: a dilapidated zoo in the English countryside. Mee had a dream to refurbish the zoo and run it as a family business. His friends and colleagues thought he was crazy. But in 2006, Mee and his wife with their two children, his brother, and his 76-year-old mother moved into the Dartmoor Wildlife Park. Their extended family now included: Solomon, an African lion and scourge of the local golf course; Zak, the rickety Alpha wolf, a broadly benevolent dictator clinging to power; Ronnie, a Brazilian tapir, easily capable of killing a man, but hopelessly soppy; and Sovereign, a jaguar and would-be ninja, who has devised a long term escape plan and implemented it. Nothing was easy, given the family's lack of experience as zookeepers, and what follows is a magical exploration of the mysteries of the animal kingdom, the power of family, and the triumph of hope over tragedy. We Bought a Zoo is a profoundly moving portrait of an unforgettable family living in the most extraordinary circumstances.

Pursuing your passion includes a whole lot of crap. For Bud DeYoung, that’s about two hundred pounds a day! Since childhood, Bud had a passion for animals. As an adult, that passion led to the rescue of a bear who lived in his family’s house, then more animals crowding for space, until Bud eventually built an entire private zoo around his home in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Along the way, a regular visitor named Carrie joined her passion for animals with Bud’s. Together they now educate the public about animal conservation, battle the harsh winters and blazing summers, and daily dole out love to the hundreds of rescued animals in their care. Meanwhile, they teach by example how to make the world a better place while pursuing their passion. Welcome to the fascinating, heartwarming journey of one man, one woman, and an amazing cast of critters, whose stories will warm your soul. Welcome to the wild life of the DeYoung Family Zoo.

This zany, new study from God's Word, broken into two six-week sessions, will help equip women of all ages to be the women, wives, and moms they were intended to be. Author Brenda Lancaster invites women to take a break from their "zoo" of a life and learn how to apply godly truths in a practical manner. Lancaster's study encourages daily Bible reading, thought-provoking questions and insight into scripture written specifically for women. The daily action assignments guarantee you will not be bored! For the past 19 years, Lancaster has been sharing the lessons God has taught her as she struggled to be the woman God wanted her to be. As a member of Life Community Church (formerly known as Hunter Hills Baptist Church) she has served with enthusiasm as Bible Study coordinator, Sunday School Teacher, and a variety of leadership positions in Ladies Ministry. After answering God's specific call on her life, she founded ZooKeepers Ministries in 2002, a Titus 2 based ministry dedicated to teaching and ministering to young women. She also partners and teaches with Life Renewal Ministries and Center Cross Creative Ministries Conferences in the area of leadership and discipleship training. She is a graduate of the Proverbs 31 Ministries' 2003 She Speaks, speakers and writers conference. Since 1999 Brenda has been guest speaker for various ladies conferences, retreats, and special events. As Brenda Lancaster's pastor and friend it gives me great joy to recommend Brenda as a gifted writer, creative teacher, and captivating speaker who conveys truth, forged in the fires of every day life in a humorous, relevant, and memorable way. I've known Brenda for many years and found her to be a good steward ofall God has given her, a faithful servant who is determined to build God's Kingdom, and a serious soul winner, sharing her faith and leading many into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Brenda is an active, faithful member of Life Community Church. God has given her a unique and very effective Bible study that was not only offered here, but was one of the most effective, life-changing Bible studies our ladies have experienced in some time. Not only was there enthusiasm, excitement, and a record attendance, but numerous testimonies of the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. Brenda has encouraged, inspired, and mentored many young ladies in our church family through small group Bible studies, seminars, and various ladies ministries. I highly recommend Brenda and the ministry God has given her. She will honor our Lord and build His Kingdom. --Jake Thornhill, Jr. Senior Pastor Life Community Church Greensboro, NC "Brenda Lancaster has produced some powerful, lucid, and remarkable insightful material for families and women in particular. Her teachings are biblical, relevant, and desperately needed in today's families. Not only should every woman, mother, husband, and father study Brenda's material, but so should every pastor. A pastor's ministry would be far richer if he preached the content of these study guides to his people. This teaching on the family and womanhood is not like so much on the market today. This is not a gushy mess of sentimental fluffy filler. It is solid biblical meat with spiritual depth. It is some of the best material on the subject I have seen in over forty years of ministry." --Dr Michael K. Moore Founder - Life Renewal Ministries, Inc. Kure Beach, NC

Head keeper Ken is world-famous for never turning a difficult animal away. Ken's zoo gives a 'last chance', offering a home to all those animals whose misbehaviour or strange habits have led to their exclusion from other zoos. But Ken and his wife adore animals, and have collected a team of keepers who share their passion and their unusual approach to animal care. However naughty or difficult an animal, Ken's zoo will always give them plenty of care and understanding. Remaining forever calm, Ken is infinitely resourceful with his network of world-wide contacts - and always thrives on a crisis. This time, he's got beavers who won't stop building dams, unruly ostriches, a baby crocodile with teething problems, and a baby giraffe afraid of heights ... And, when the Council decide to close the zoo, there's a dragon at the gates ...

The therapeutic landscape concept, first introduced early in the 1990s, has been widely employed in health/medical geography and gaining momentum in various health-related disciplines. This is the first book published in several years, and provides an introduction to the concept and its applications. Written by health/medical geographers and anthropologists, it addresses contemporary applications in the natural and built environments; for special populations, such as substance abusers; and in health care sites, a new and evolving area - and provides an array of critiques or contestations of the concept and its various applications. The conclusion of the work provides a critical evaluation of the development and progress of the concept to date, signposting the likely avenues for future investigation.
