Classroom Program

ZooMontana’s Classroom program brings the wonder of wildlife directly into your learning space. A ZooEducator arrives with a small team of Ambassador Animals and a collection of engaging biofacts such as skulls, feathers, pelts, and other natural artifacts that spark curiosity and deepen understanding.

The experience combines storytelling, hands‑on exploration, and close‑up animal encounters to create an atmosphere where students connect concepts to real creatures right in front of them. Whether the setting is structured or casual, the program encourages observation, inquiry, and discovery, helping learners form meaningful connections to the natural world.

This program is an ideal fit for classrooms, camps, libraries, and youth groups. It transforms any gathering into an immersive and memorable learning moment that inspires empathy, excitement, and a lasting appreciation for wildlife.

Assembly Program

ZooMontana’s Assembly program turns a large group gathering into an energetic and engaging wildlife learning experience. A ZooEducator introduces a selection of Ambassador Animals and guides students through the remarkable traits, behaviors, and survival strategies that shape each species’ life in the wild.

The presentation blends storytelling, movement, and interactive moments that keep students curious and connected. Animals appear up close, and natural artifacts help deepen understanding, creating a shared experience that encourages thoughtful questions and sparks excitement about the natural world.

Designed for learners of all ages, this program transforms any gym, cafeteria, or multipurpose space into a lively exploration of wildlife and ecology. The result is a memorable experience that stays with students long after the presentation concludes.
