Perissodactyls, Artiodactyls, and Theropods! Oh My! You might think we’re learning about dinosaurs this week. Well, almost. This week is all about understanding more about our farm animal ambassadors and the products they provide. Campers will be visiting and helping tend to the “ungulates” (hoofed mammals such as horses, cows, goats, sheep and pigs). Some are odd-toed (perissodactyls) and some are even-toed (artiodactyls). Then they are those chickens, descendants of theropod dinosaurs, that come complete with “spurs”! We will collect some chicken eggs for an “Eggciting Eggventure” where we create containers for our first Aullwood Egg Drop Challenge! Farm activities include loom weaving, making butter and ice cream, stall mucking, and taking a wagon ride around the pastures. As part of participating in our Habitat Hikers, each camper gets their own T-shirt and backpack.
