Fairfield University is working with the zoo on animal behavioral research projects. 

At the talk, participants will learn answers to the following questions:

  • Will we hear the pitter patter of baby snowy owl feet in our future? 
  • What do our new giant anteaters do all day? 
  • What foes go underground in the prairie dog tunnels? 
  • Do hellbenders prefer to dine in the dark? 
  • Can sloths, callimico monkeys and agoutis be nice and share? 
  • Why is our porcupine so shy? 

The lecture will take place in the DiMenna-Nyselius Library Auditorium, Room 101, Fairfield University campus, 1073 N. Benson Road.
