Learn how zookeepers improve and enhance an animal's quality of life through our enrichment program. Enrichment in zoos is essential for enhancing animal welfare and encouraging natural behaviors and may include puzzle feeders, climbing structures, and sensory stimulation through new scents and objects.
Come prepared with questions and and ask our zoo specialists anything you have in mind.
