Hi Jenny, Many of the zoos and aquaria to which I've gone have displays about endangered species. Typically included in the formula are: * examples of the ugly products produced with the animals' furs, skins, teeth, bones, etc. * photographs of poachers with illegal kills * statistical information regarding illegal hunting/fishing The displays often have great impact . . . at least on me! One great example that springs to mind is the Metropolitan Toronto Zoo. Not only did they have such a display in one of their Pavilions, in years past (and sitll do?), but there was a clear statement about NOT buying products made with materials from these illegally caught animals. Best wishes, sincerely, Jay Heuman, Curator of Education Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art 650 N. 1100 E. / UMC 4020 Logan, Utah 84322-4020 t 435 797 0165 f 435 797 3423 e [log in to unmask] www.artmuseum.usu.edu Education costs money, but then so does ignorance.
