Subject: Upcoming National Zoo Career Event Description: Smithsonian’s National Zoo and the Friends of the National Zoo would like to extend an invitation to the University of Maryland’s students to attend our upcoming event, Exploring Careers in Wildlife Conservation, Focus On: Animal Health and the National Zoo. This event is scheduled to take place on Thursday, June 26th from 5-6:30PM at the National Zoo’s Visitor Center Auditorium. A candid discussion with National Zoo professionals, Exploring Careers in Wildlife Conservation, Focus On: Animal Health and the National Zoo will give participants the opportunity to ask questions directly to experts in the fields of veterinary medicine, pathology and animal nutrition. While the conversation will primarily focus on what it takes to maintain the health of the Zoo’s animal collection, we will also have the opportunity to discuss wildlife conservation and offer advice to aspiring zoo professionals. Before and after the event, attendees will have the opportunity to review a series of posters developed by National Zoo staff on the subjects of animal health and nutrition. Additional information and registration can be found on our website, www.fonz.org/ecwc. Contact Person: Kirstin Schoeninger | Contact Email: [log in to unmask] Website URL: http://www.fonz.org
