Alumni of the School of Agriculture is the new host of ZigZag (RTP2)

Ayala Botto, a former ISA student, finished his Biology degree in 2016 and currently hosts a television show on ZigZag (RTP2) called "No Mundo dos Animais".

Ayala says he applied for the casting and thought: "Why not? The worst they can say is 'no', and it couldbe fun". He went through the various stages of casting but confessed: "... I was scared of the possibility of being chosen...". He entered this challenge carefree and did not even think he could be selected. 

The Biologist thanks his team and those closest to him who knew about this new challenge and supported him unconditionally.

The former ISA student is also a High School Biology Teacher and admits that it takes work to balance the classes with the recordings and other works such as tutoring, giving guided tours at the Lisbon Zoo, and providing training in the sustainability area, among others. "Dynamics" is Ayala's middle name!
