Videotapes
Bring the zoo experience to your classroom with our videotapes.
Chicago Wilderness (a perfect companion for the Connections “Local Habitats” talk). In this 15-minute video, you will discover habitats that are more rare than tropical rain forest – right here in the Chicago area!
Return to the Wild (great to pair with the “Species Survival Plan” Connections talk). In this 40-minute video, follow golden lion tamarins Flash and Celia, along with their offspring Melvin, Marty, and Maude, as they family travels from Brookfield Zoo to their native home in Brazil.
The Training Game (perfect for students who have had the Connections Training and Enrichment talk) In this short disk, you will join Chicago Zoological Society staff as they work to provide animals with opportunities to express natural behaviors.
