School presentation

Really May 27, 2011 12:13 PM

Today we did a presentation at my friend's daughter's school. We brought Kismet and Sebastian, my Mountain horned dragon and their three beardies. The kids were great! The little girl holding Sebastian is my friend's daughter so she knows how to handle lizards == she's been around Kismet most of her life.

Sebastian handled his first day as an education animal really well. He was very calm and did not seemed stressed at all, even when the kids touched him. I can't believe how quickly he's taken to the leash, but seems to already have figured out that when he sees the leash it means he'll get to go out and about. Kismet, as usual, seemed to thrive on the attention, though you can't really tell from this picture. She will literally go to anyone and the teachers were amazed. We started her off in the Princess costume to give everyone a laugh and then got her stripped down and into some serious talk about the state of rock iguanas in the wild.

I love this!

This year in my BIO348 Reptiles Class at Stony Brook University I brought in Petra, and all the others for each chapter of our lessons.

I wish I would have taken pics, now petra has her college degree! lol

Too Cool! So does Kismet -- she visited my daughter's college Zoology class and the Biology 1406 class a couple of semesters ago!!! I just love teaching people about these guys!
