Summer Camp, Vet Tag Along

Lisa Hetherington, Education Manager


Our first of two “Vet Tag Along” camps was enjoyable and informative for all involved. Nine campers had the opportunity to follow our Zoo Vet Dr. Wack around as he conducted his morning rounds.
Campers were able to assist with the dispensing of antibiotics to some of our box turtles and boa snakes, observed a checkup exam and x-ray of a duck with an injured foot and had an up close look at the squeeze cage used to examine the Giraffes. A big thank you to Dr. Wack and the vet staff for taking the time to spend with our campers!
Don’t forget to check back for more wildly inspiring camp stories! And there are still a few classes left, so visit our Summer Camp page.
