thinking big: Healthy Planet

Abdulqadir makes a new friend

One of the major learning goals of our Healers of Tomorrow program is to grow our definition of health and healing.  On May 13 our youth visited Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium to learn about wildlife and veterinary medicine.  The animals were active when we arrived right at zoo opening time! We especially got up close and personal with a polar bear and a peacock.  We were able to see how animal's lives affect human lives through the ecosystem we share and the many gifts that animals give to us.  Keep scrolling to see more from our adventure!
