2010 Events at T&D's Cats of the World During Enrichment Day, the animals will be having fun! Environmental or
behavioral enrichment is achieved by adding to a captive animal's environment or
by modifying that environment to stimulate behaviors resembling those of a
healthy wild animal. Enrichment is intended to encourage behaviors that
are appropriate for the species and that satisfy and animal's physical and
psychological needs (www.aazk.org). Come
and see the joys of animal enrichment! Event is free with your
admission to T&D's.
