Let's hop to it!

Hoppy Thursday everyone! Summer Science kids continued their focus on urban wildlife by learning about rabbits. Cottontail rabbits are the native rabbit found in NY parks. Have you seen any on the trails? Kids got a chance to compare the pelts of native wild rabbits to the fur coloration of domestic rabbits we have at APEC. We built rabbit launchers (only toy rabbits were launched) and we practiced jumping and twisting like rabbits on our trampoline! We wrapped things up by taking some time to brush our rabbits and give them some TLC!
