Winter Camp Themes
Monday – Who can flourish in a flurry?: Winter might not be so bad for our fluffy friends but what about other critters? You will learn about the amazing adaptations that help animals survive as you interact with a dog, frog, box turtle, duck, and chinchilla. (This theme only takes place on 12/18, no camp on 12/25 or 1/01)
Tuesday – There’s snow place like home!: Meet a miniature horse, guinea pig, blue-tongued skink, Vietnamese walking stick, and parrot as you discover what kind of environment these animals live in and whether or not they stay put as the temperature drops.
Wednesday – Dashing through the snow: It’s fun to frolic around in the snow but it can be hard to do when you’re bundled up from head to toe! You will meet a ball python, alpaca, pigeon or dove, hermit crab, and tortoise as you learn about their unique movements and if the cold weather affects their ability to get around.
Thursday – Huddle up with your herd: You will meet a cockatiel, dog, water or bearded dragon, chicken, and sheep as you find out how animal families help each other during the harsh winter months.
Friday – Compassion for all critters: Interact with a rosy boa, dove or pigeon, rabbit, Madagascar hissing cockroach, miniature donkey, and visit the adoptions center as you gain a better understanding of how animals help people and how people can help animals.
Species may vary depending on animal health, safety and availability.
