that sounds perfect! i'm thinking the kind of sessions he ran as a volunteer were just the super basic ones with kids where he gave a few simple facts about the creepy crawlies and then brought them out for the kids to look at, but he would've only been in his second year of his zoology degree at that point so it makes sense that she trained/monitored him at first. he'd be legit fascinated by the fact that she's from australia and had a travelling wildlife show, ngl i'm pretty sure he would've recognised her because animals have been his lifelong obsession so he probably saw clips of her on youtube at some point so maybe that was an awkward bonding conversation they could've had.
