Students attend a 45 minute session about the role of Zoos in Australia and overseas. The session themes include the role of zoos in conservation, recreation, scientific research, education, and connecting people with nature to save species from extinction. Students explore ethical and practical implications of keeping animals in captivity, exploring the history of zoos and modern conservation practices. Students are challenged to critically analyze their own beliefs and to think about personal actions to address important conservation issues.
