Saskatoon Zoo Visit and Bat Habitat Tour (Special Thanks to Sherry McIntosh!)

On the afternoon of October 2nd, our class visited the Saskatoon Zoo and Forestry Farm (www.saskatoonzoosociety.ca). Sherry McIntosh (Jackson`s mother), took our class on a tour of the bat habitat  teaching the students about all of the different elements needed to plan and maintain a healthy habitat. The students learned about the necessity of appropriate light periods, bat metabolism, temperature and general climate needs. Sherry even allowed the students inside the exhibit giving them a chance to get up close and interact with the habitat and animals. Our class extends a very special thank you to Sherry for this amazing opportunity.
