On March 15th, nearly 40 ARCS members and guests attended an ARCS Educational Event in Savanna Hall at Zoo Atlanta. After being greeted by Ambassador Animals, we enjoyed lunch and a presentation by Dr. Sam Rivera, Senior Director of Veterinary Services at Zoo Atlanta. Following lunch, there was an elephant care demonstration featuring Msholo the Elephant and an optional guided walking tour of the zoo.
