This week’s #microscopicMonday, we are stepping back and looking at this animal’s pelt. Any ideas on who this South American mammal is? @sunsetzoo @KS_SCI
Answer to last week’s #microscopicmonday is Madagascar Hissing Cockroches! These large roaches get their name from the sound they make by pushing air out of the spiracles (respiratory system) on the 4th abdominal segment. @sunsetzoo @KS_SCI @sixlegscience
Today’s #microscopicmonday isn’t exactly microscopic, but it is zoomed in. Any guesses on who this week’s animal is? @sunsetzoo @KS_SCI
Here's the answer to last week's #MicroscopicMonday, it's a tiger pelt. Did you know that there are less than 4,000 tigers left in the wild and that Malayan tigers can weigh up more than 250 pounds? For more info about Malayan tigers, come visit Malik and Hakim at @sunsetzoo.
Getting ready to recognize our 2019 Science Communicate Fellowship cohort this afternoon on the hard work and dedication they have to #scicomm @KS_SCI @sunsetzoo
For this week's #MicroscopicMonday, which animal do you think that this belongs to? #sunsetzoo #sciencetwitter #zoo #conservation #education @sunsetzoo
Did you guess a peacock feather for last week's #MicroscopicMonday?
Please join us for the next Science on Tap on March 18 featuring our very own Nicole Wade! #scicomm #scienceMHK @sunsetzoo @KS_SCI @TGTaphouse
The game we played demonstrated strengths and weaknesses of the different types of functional traits. It also taught that survival is complicated when to combine all the driving factors. #scicomm #scienceMHK @sunsetzoo @KS_SCI @TGTaphouse
