Tales of Tails: Animals, Their Biology, and a Scientist's Adventures (Zoology)

Learners will hear about a new animal and its biology each week, with a specific focus on animals that I have encountered while doing field work all over the world. I will also share my experiences, stories, and pictures about each animal.

Class Experience

**THIS IS AN ONGOING CLASS, WHICH MEANS THAT  LEARNERS CAN JOIN AT ANY TIME**

Does your learner love animals?  So do I!  I am a field biologist who has been fortunate enough to travel the world to study all sorts of animals and ecosystems and I want to share my passion with learners of all ages.  In this animal class, learners will learn about a new animal each week in a fun and interactive manner.  I will also share stories, experiences, pictures, and/or trail camera footage of my time seeing or working with these animals so learners have an opportunity to learn about the type of work field biologists do!  Each class period I will introduce a new animal and discuss a variety of things related to this animal, such as its diet, neat features, habitat preferences, etc.  Come join us as we learn about biology, but also my adventures from the field!
