The
NYC AAZK Chapter is hosting a panel discussion this coming summer at one of our
monthly meetings. This event will be an open floor format, in which all
questions, comments, and ideas are very much welcomed and encouraged to be
expressed to a panel of representatives from each of the parks.
Please answer the following questions honestly, to help us
determine if this would be of interest to you and the animal department and
education staff.
- Would you attend such a panel
discussion? Why or why not? If NOT, what could be a better way to voice your
questions?
- What do you think would be the
pros or cons of having this type of discussion?
- If you could ask 1 question, what
would it be? Limit 2 to 3 questions.
