Animal Enrichment


Easy Blog Photo
During the last couple of weeks we have been learning about animal enrichment. We were assigned to create and design a piece of animal enrichment for a specific animal. I created a item named The Food Pyramid that was designed for a Galapagos tortoise. It encourages the tortoise to push a 12 kilogram pyramid to help burn their weight because they can weigh up to 417 kilograms. It is the reason why they are slow because their legs can't lift up their body weight. If they push the object they will be rewarded with food.
