Zoo Vet at Large is a television series following the work of zoo vet Matt Brash at Flamingo Land in North Yorkshire. The programme originated from Yorkshire Television and is also shown world wide on channels such as Sky Travel and the Danish channel Viasat.

Zoo Vet is the first book by Matt Brash, published in 2007.
"Good day at the office, dear?" is a particularly loaded question when asked of Matt Brash. A typical day at the office could include escaping from angry polar bears, dodging poo hurled by grumpy chimpanzees and avoiding massive loss of blood at the teeth of vindictive hamsters. A light-hearted and colourful journey through Matt's life and work with weird and wonderful exotic animals, from tarantulas to tapirs, birds to bears, brothel madams to motorbikers!
