Hey educators! Looking for a fun teacher development program this summer? Join us at the Idaho Falls Zoo August 10 and 11 for our Exotics in Idaho course. This course will investigate the characteristics of animals that live at Idaho Falls Zoo and compare them with species native to Idaho. 

Learn about animal characteristics, biological classification, species management, and zoo collections while you explore the zoo in depth. The class will provide one continuing education credit.

Registration is now OPEN! Visit https://tinyurl.com/5k359a89 to register. Please note: on the site you’ll find TWO links (one to register with the zoo and one register with North Nazarene University). You must register at both sites.
