Overview

Wild Homes aims to educate students in years 4-6 on the work and thought processes behind habitat design at the Zoo.

We will explore how each element is thoughtfully incorporated to provide the best welfare outcomes for the species and enhances visitor experience.

Through STEM-based learning, students will use critical thinking to creatively problem solve how their exhibit design meets animal welfare needs.

Throughout this 90-minute experience your students will; 

  • Visit and explore an animals exhibit, take notes on design elements and how the features support positive welfare. 
  • Design and build an exhibit with skills learnt in the session.
  • Tour along our new Gibbon Crossing habitat to discover the planning that went into creating this new wild home at Perth Zoo.
