Zookeeping 101 is for students in 10-12th grade and is a first level zookeeping camp. Campers rotate through different zoo areas, working alongside zookeepers and counselors from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The zoo area rotations are chosen by lottery and campers have the opportunity to experience husbandry for all types of animals: birds, reptiles, primates, carnivores or hoofstock, or design diets in the Zoo Nutrition Center. This camp includes a field trip to a local park or offsite animal facility.
