In-depth experience, for the older students who are serious about learning animal husbandry and medical care of animals.
Monday January 25th
NEW* So you want to be a Zoo Keeper (Ages 10+) 9:15-4pm. In-depth animal husbandry session $90
Led by one of our animal keepers, this in-depth experience is for the older students, who are serious about learning about animal husbandry and medical care of animals. Space is limited for this course, as students will get to tour around the facility and learn specific information, and the needs of our animal collection. Students will get to not only encounter animals in our behind-the-scenes animal room, but to assist with animal care, food prep, and cleaning. The class will get to put together an animal enclosure for one of our animals by working together as a team. Students will also get to meet the animal guest expert and learn to train an animal and even make an enrichment toy for our animals. This class is perfect for aspiring “ECO Junior Assistants”.
