All presentations are interactive, with a chance of hands-on experiences with many different live captive bred exotic animals. With the aid of a flexible webcam and projector, we are able to get close to even the smallest and scariest of animals. Fantastic definition and detail – closer than the eye may want to get. Animals that we have, that cannot be introduced into a school environment for safety reasons, will be incorporated into the talk in an exciting power-point show, along with sounds from the environment chosen by you.
New ideas for lessons are being developed all the time, and will be updated on our website. Please feel free to make suggestions.
