Small animal care is something many of us complete daily. This course is intended to take that basic understanding deeper. Students will learn about safe handling procedures, zoonotic diseases, animal rights vs. animal welfare, nutrition and digestion, reproduction, behavior, and genetics. Students will select a specific species to create an individual portfolio to stretch their learning in all of these areas.
