Our last day of Zoo School had plenty of highlights! We got to meet Lucy and learn lots about her, and Anna created a ferret enrichment with snow which was very delightful to observe. (It turns out, pretty much all of our various predictions about what Chacha would do with the snow came true!) We got to see the zookeeper Sarah feed the fruit bats (a challenging task), and we got a good sighting of the two-toed sloths. We helped Anna decide on an enrichment for the Goeldi's monkeys (who are known for being somewhat lazy), and they eventually got around to exploring the lettuce, tissue paper, and meal worms. We also got some hints about which monkey was the dominant one. We said hello to the snow leopard with her very long tail that she uses as a scarf, and had some time at the end of the day to explore the zoo with our groups. It's been an amazing week, and we're so grateful to our volunteers, our educator Anna, and to the Edmonton Valley Zoo! Comments are closed.
