61. Humane Education on why the animal is endangered, what's being done, etc. D. INCREASE EMPATHY/COMPASSIONFOR animals 1. Start at the Feelings level teach children that all http://www.theanimalspirit.com/awe.html

Jump-To Menu/Site Map "A teacher affects eternity; no one can tell where his influence stops." ~Henry Adams Humane Education A. EDUCATION ABOUT ANIMALS Characteristics of species - interesting facts for children B. IMPORTANCE OF SPAY/NEUTERING Use of posters: Example - Poster starting with 2 cats at top, next level - 4 kittens, next level each kitten has 4 kittens, each of those kittens has 4 kittens, and so on, and so on. Perhaps each generation can be color-coded until at the bottom of the poster the page is swarming with cats. Older children (late Middle School and High School ages) can learn about euthanasia. Let children know that they CAN make a difference; that they are not helpless! For example, "Tell your parents and friends to spay/neuter their companion animals. Financial help is available in every state." C. TREATMENT OF ANIMAL Hands-on approach - Both younger and older children can visit an animal shelter. Older children can assist with caring for the animals. Adults who have companion animals that enjoy contact with children can bring the animal to visit the students at school. Children can have regular, supervised interaction with companion animals. It is important to have frequent visits with the same animal so that children can develop a relationship with animals. During nice weather, younger children can take a walk through a park to see the birds, squirrels, etc. Point out that the animals in the park are enjoying the day as are the children. Would the animals want someone to hurt them? Would they prefer the freedom of the park to a cage?

An animal care manager oversees the day-to-day operations of a specific collection of wildlife, such as birds. Curators often accompany animals that need to travel from one facility to another, but usually not quite this close! Never tied to a desk for long, curators like to have up-close visits with their charges. Managing Animal Collections What We Do Curators and animal care managers are responsible for overseeing and managing the specific collections at the San Diego Zoo or Wild Animal Park: mammals, birds, and reptiles and amphibians. The curators make decisions about which species to bring into the collection (acquisition), and which ones to send to other zoos (disposition). They also create long-range plans for animals within the Zoo, Park, and in the wild by working with other organizations and agencies, and they help decide which conservation projects the Zoo and Park will be involved in. Both curators and animal care managers are responsible for the daily care of the animals and managing the keeper staff. They also help design exhibits, make decisions about breeding animals, and write guidelines and policies for the care of animals. Job Challenges How This Job Helps Animals How to Get a Job Like This
