Welcome to Intro to Zoology!
July 31 - Aug 4: This page has been set up to give you notifications, updates, and reviews of our scientists'/naturalists' activities for the day. The class been designed with certain objectives and a certain framework of time to complete them; however, this is a class where the curiosity and engagement of the students will determine the actual flow of the course. If a student or two has an idea that should be shared by the class, we're going to go with it!
