Zookeeper For a Day

Zookeeper Program for Youth ages 6 – 16:

We’ll be hosting Junior Zookeeper Classes throughout Winter Breaks and Holidays on select dates, 9am – 11am each date. Participants will get the opportunity to help our staff, clean animal enclosures, prepare meals and feed the animals, learn reptile husbandry and simple vet care, handle animals that the general public typically does not get to work with and receive special training on how to deal with reptiles in the wild. Zookeeper duties will vary so each session will not be the same.
