Zookeeping 201 Grades 10 – college: Take zookeeping to the next level. This camp is a real-life, hands-on experience at one of the nation’s largest zoos. Let Busch Gardens’ staff introduce you to the world of animal care; from flying foxes to lowland gorillas and kangaroos. Work alongside expert zookeepers and observe animal behavior training methods and engage in up-close animal encounters. Dive into the marine world for a day at SeaWorld, and hold your hands high as you scream down some of the Southeast’s fastest roller coasters at both parks. A true first-hand experience of zookeeping at its finest! (Zookeeping 101 recommended as a pre-requisite).
