DETAILS  - The Giraffe Care Workshop provides unique opportunities to work directly with the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo's (CMZoo) giraffe herd, practicing training techniques and observing live demonstrations. Lecture material is balanced with roundtable discussions and hands-on activities.  Attendees will work through various giraffe-specific modules with CMZoo staff, and gain knowledge and experience in the following topics: training, browse programs, hoof care, conservation, teamwork, roadblocks, enrichment, and guest/giraffe interactions.

By the end of the week, attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of giraffe care and practical experience to implement in their own work environments.
