This is a sensory friendly event for families with additional needs. There will be less number , the lights will be dimmed and it will be a nice quiet experience.
Join the Zoological Society of the University of Galway as we introduce you to a host of wonderfully wild creatures. Learn how reptiles are suited to their environments and the adaptations they have, from bright blue tongues to self-dropping tails, and get up close and personal with incredible insects. All ages are welcome to come and learn about the amazing species we share our planet with and have the opportunity to interact with the animals in a fun and safe environment. Each of our members are experienced and dedicated animal handlers, with a passion for communication and education, and we hope to see you there!
This workshop is by ZooSoc and Dr Michel Dugon's Bug Doctor takes place in the Aula Maxima.
