Zoo U: Deadly Venom, Grades 9-12

Zoo U logo and a photo of a Komodo dragon.

Our fall series will focus on deadly animals that use venom as a specialized defense mechanism.  There are a lot of venomous animals in the sea and we all know about venomous snakes, but what about venomous birds and mammals?  With brand new lessons and exciting zoo tours, we will explore what animals use venoms and why.  Through a little research, we will explore the difference between venom and poison.

This class is five sessions that take place on Saturdays.
