Join us as we explore the amazing world of animal senses. Campers will meet, and handle, resident VAI animals to learn about their extraordinary eyes, fantastic feelers, and other sense-sational senses. They will also discover how animals use their senses to survive in their environment, then apply what they've learned to design a new animal with amazing abilities! 

  

Some Guided Activities: 

  • Set up and conduct your own behavioral investigations. 
  • Use your senses of sight and touch to learn about animals’ unique adaptations. 
  • Get up close and personal with reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates.
