HOW TO INTERPRET WHEN THE SUBJECT IS UNPREDICTABLE

All docents are highly trained volunteers who educate the public by engaging visitors at their respective institutions. But what if that institution is a zoo and the subject presents unpredictable situations such as: animal sleeping/hiding, animal off-exhibit, animal doing something distracting, such as mating or chucking poo? Kansas City Zoo docents have seen it all and will share how to “docent” when the subject may present numerous challenges that are out of our control. You will visit different animal exhibits that will demonstrate these challenges. After the workshop, you’re free to wander the zoo to experience all our wonderful animals.
