Topics to be covered include:

Novel research in flamingo health and welfare

Conservation of in situ populations

Good storytelling and interpretation for public engagement

Husbandry and management of flamingos in different styles of enclosures

The workshop will include a walk-and-talk around Chester Zoo’s two flamingo exhibits with plenty of networking opportunities to develop your knowledge and skills in flamingo husbandry.
