The Cincinnati Zoo Visits

Mike Nicolai from the Cincinnati Zoo visited our classroom last Friday to present two animals' life history, habitats, and behaviors.  He brought a cave dwelling rat snake from Thailand named Pandolin.  He also brought a northern white faced owl from Africa named Goblin.  We learned so many new and interesting facts about both animals.  We even got to gently pet the snake and owl.  Thanks Cincinnati Zoo for visiting Amelia Elementary!  We had a wonderful time learning about Pandolin and Goblin.
