Anatomy of a Rescue

In this lab, you will get a hands-on look at the internal physiology of different species as you compare organs and bones from both mammals and reptiles. Using three-dimensional anatomical models and scientific specimens, we will examine case studies of real patients we help rescue here at the Brevard Zoo!
