About this event
Looking for an engaging dissection for your group, but don’t want to worry about all the mess? Don’t stress! When you register for a Zoo Lab at the Memphis Zoo, we make sure your group has everything they need to participate in one of our hands-on dissection programs, and we worry about the cleanup, so you don’t have to. Whether you are learning about owls’ unique digestive systems while discovering what is inside an owl pellet, or examining the internal and external structures of frogs, or diving deeper into the mammalian organ system of rats, we have everything prepared for you and your group for your visit to the Zoo! These Zoo Labs are not only perfect for school groups, but also for homeschool groups and scouts too! Rat Dissection- (9th-12th grade recommended) (4 students per specimen) In this hands-on program, we will examine the thoracic and abdominal cavities of rats and the functions of different organs. Focusing on the mammalian systems, we will also compare human functions while we view this small mammal’s internal anatomy!"
