Wildlife Wonders: Appalachian Zoology
Aspiring biologists and naturalists will explore the animal life of the southern Appalachians through discussions, workshops, hands-on lab experiments, and field trips. Identify local species by searching for salamanders in a private reserve, snorkeling in clear mountain streams, and studying specimens under microscopes. A special evening field trip will offer the opportunity to observe the rare synchronous and blue-ghost fireflies at a private reserve. Learn to use zoological tools such as aquatic and insect nets, binoculars, and dissecting and compound microscopes. Field trips will focus on observing and identifying vertebrate wildlife across Western North Carolina's diverse habitats.

Backstage Pass: Tropical Birds
Before the Zoo opens, walk the Tropics Trail and watch as the animals wake up for the day. From howling gibbons and crooning hornbills to grunting lemurs and honking flamingos, open your ears to the chorus of songs welcoming you to a morning in the tropics. Get a bird's eye view from our special aviary treehouse and be entranced as the tropical birds come to feed for the morning. This experience is ideal for photographers, families, and birders of all sorts!
