WF 3023 - Enrichment and Exhibit Design

Institution:

Unity College

Subject:

Description:

When animals are brought up in captive environments they loose the opportunity to make choices. Through exhibit designs and enrichment initiatives we are able to provide animals with choices promoting natural behaviors. Students in this course will research natural history and behaviors of exotic animal species. They will utilize this information in designing animal exhibits and enrichment devices. During this process they will learn the value of recordkeeping and animal observation as a method to recognize abnormal animal behavior and provide techniques to extinguish this behavior. A few labs may be held on Saturdays. Credits: 3 Offered Semester II Prerequisite: WF 1011, WF 2003
