From feeding alpacas to learning about small animal handling, students gained valuable experience in animal interaction, responsibility, and care routines. The highlight? A playful goat yoga session where curious kids climbed (literally!) onto students’ backs, sparking laughter and building confidence. These sessions bring learning to life—developing not just practical animal care skills, but teamwork, empathy, and resilience too.
