What is Enrichment?

Enrichment gives animals a customized outlet for physical activity and mental exercise that mimic actions and behaviors that they would use in their natural environment.

This workshop will explain why enrichment is an important part of our animal care plan, and guests will help team members from The Wilds create animal enrichment too!  After the workshop, you will receive photos and/or video of the enrichment you created being used.
