Claire Madden, a passionate and determined animal conservationist, has dedicated her life to wildlife and is striving to become a recognized wildlife presenter through educational documentaries. Claire, better known as ‘zoo girl’ has kick started her career in media by being a participant in the reality TV show Big Brother. Claire aims is to transform this media experience and the character she established, to develop a series of successful documentaries focusing on education and conservation of wildlife worldwide.Claire was born in Geelong in June 1983, and at 23 years of age has already achieved numerous awards and experiences in the animal industry. Having worked with a variety of species of animals including Cheetahs, Tigers, Birds of Prey, Dingoes, Koalas and Orangutans, Claire’s passion does not stop with any one species. In 2004 Claire graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Science, Animal Studies and was awarded First Class Honors. With plans to commence her PhD in wildlife reproduction in 2005, Claire decided to postpone further studies after being offered a job with Big Cats at Steve Irwin’s Australia Zoo. Claire’s passion has taken her around the world with visitations to Sepilok Orangutan Sanctuary in Borneo and Southern African Wildlife College in Kruger National Park, South Africa. It has been an ambition of Claire’s to utilize media to not only establish a recognisable profile in conservation but to raise much needed funds and awareness for conservation projects worldwide. Having achieved her goal of gaining media exposure for her passionate conservation views through Big Brother, Claire is eager to use this as a platform to launch into documentaries as soon as possible.

Claire Madden (born June 17 1983) is a big cat zookeeper from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. She entered the House on Day 0 with the rest of the original housemates of the series. She entertained the House with various original songs, as housemates are forbidden to sing any commercial music. Claire is a vegetarian and is concerned about conservation of the environment. When asked during "Housemates on Trial" if she would eat meat to win the prize money, she said she wouldn't, and the Layered Voice Analysis said she was telling the truth. This was in response to her saying on "Launch" that she would eat meat for a million dollars, the amount of money the winner would have won had the housemates not incurred any fines. Claire was nominated for eviction in Week 2. She was also put up for potential nomination in the "Under the Radar" vote but did not receive enough audience votes to be nominated for eviction. Claire won "Friday Night Live" in Week 9, and took Rob to the "Rewards Room" because he was the only housemate, other than the recently arrived Intruders, who had never been in there. She used her "Three Point Twist" on David during the following Monday's "Nominations", however this failed to remove him from the line-up. The reduction in his points put him into a third place tie with Camilla, so David remained up for eviction while Camilla was added to the eviction line-up. Claire was born in Geelong, Victoria, but at a young age, relocated to the Gold Coast where she completed the majority of her primary and secondary education. Claire was evicted from the house on Day 92, with 49% of the merged vote. On leaving the house she met Jamie Brooksby's (fellow housemate, eventual winner of the series) brother, Jon. Claire and Jon have been dating ever since.Claire travelled to Borneo in June of 2007 to produce her first wildlife documentary exploring the plight of the orangutan. This production was sponsored by Kumuka travel (a sponsor of Big Brother). Since leaving the big brother house Claire has been named an ambassador for numerous wildlife charities including WWF (World Wildlife Fund), AOP (Australian Orangutan Project) and Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors.She has also, since her time in the Big Brother house, created her own personal website www.zoogirlclaire.com
