Exciting course offerings for tweens and teens! Zoo U sessions are now available for children 10 years and older.

ZOO UNIVERSITY
We offer two curricula so children can attend one or two weeks of ZooU. If selecting two weeks, please be sure to pick an A and a B week. Order does not matter.

Animal Behavior: Investigate what motivates animal behavior and how animals “learn” to do these things. Participants will think like scientists as they explore animal behaviors and design their own experiments to study interesting animal behaviors of their choosing.

August 17-21 only: Animal Behavior will be offered in partnership with the Seattle Aquarium. During this week participants will spend time at Woodland Park Zoo and the Seattle Aquarium, with transportation provided. There is an additional fee for this week only.

Wildlife Conservation: What can we do to help wildlife? From wild animal tracking to recycling bottles, from changing the laws to changing the things we buy, participants will explore what people all over the world, including here at the zoo, are doing to conserve wildlife and how they can take an active part in that process.

Please review the schedule below to select the dates/times most appropriate for you. If selecting two weeks, please be sure to pick an A and a B week. This schedule is also available as a PDF document you can download and print for your convenience.
