Meet Zyta
Animal nerd, educator and lifelong keeper.
Zyta's fascination with unusual animals began while growing up in Cyprus and followed her to the UK. By nine, she was already caring for exotic pets — beginning with a stick insect called Frank.
She later studied animal care at college and Zoology at university, alongside practical work in areas including zookeeping, aquatics and specialist reptile care. In 2023 she moved into education and brought those two worlds together through Zyta's Creatures.
Animal ambassadors
Meet some of the team
Many of the animals have their own rehoming stories and very definite personalities.
Hex
Royal python. Calm, steady and particularly good at helping nervous visitors see snakes differently.
Littlefoot
Bearded dragon. Rehomed as a youngster and now a dramatic, food-motivated member of the team.
Billie
Dwarf Hermann's tortoise. Inquisitive, determined and more interested in going through an obstacle than around it.
