Positive reinforcement is the perfect training method for primates, pachyderms, and parrots! Training animals can be challenging and requires a lot of patience and problem solving. Are you up for the challenge?
**Schedule Subject to Change. Ask your camper the questions below to learn about their day!
How can we teach Rudy the Rhino that it is safe and fun to be outside?
Pachyderm Exhibits, Toyota Elephant Passage. What clues did we find about Rudy? What made Rudy feel anxious about going outside? What fun things did we see in Rudy’s exhibit and the elephants’ exhibits?
What animal(s) did we meet in our classroom? How was each animal we met different? Which one did we like the best?
Campers design a training routine to help Rudi learn to love the outdoors! Why was our solution the best way to help Rudi? How does it work? What will we use to motivate Rudi?
What areas of the zoo did we explore in the afternoon? Which other animals did we see being trained at the Zoo today?
How does training help both the animals and their zookeepers? How could you apply what you learned about training to animals at home?
