Seal Enrichment Activity


Easy Blog Photo
During the last couple of weeks in Room 13, we have been learning about animal enrichment. We have even been creating our own enrichment activity for an animal at the zoo after our recent visit to the Auckland Zoo. I created an enrichment activity for a seal, and it was a ball. The ball is made out of plastic, live fish, crushed ice and water. When the seal bites hard enough on the ball, the plastic coat will break, and the live fish along with the crushed ice and water will spill out. I chose live fish instead of dead fish because then the seals can chase the fish, and I know they like to be active.
