🕷️ Highlands College is Full of Spiders! 🕷️ At this time of year, campus is teeming with spider activity! Our Animal Management students have been making the most of the misty mornings, spotting webs and identifying spider families as part of their Ecology and Conservation studies. With resources from the Jersey Biodiversity Centre, students practiced sweep net surveying and web identification - vital skills for wildlife research. Observing these changes year-round helps them gain deeper insights into local habitats and ecosystems. 🌍🍃 If you'd like to learn more about this course, click here: https://lnkd.in/gwHk79FV

Led by #JerseyZoo staff, our Animal Management students participated in an enclosure design workshop as part of their Exotic Animal Husbandry unit. They observed animals and worked in teams to design new enclosure spaces. Over the coming weeks, students will continue their learning at Jersey Zoo, culminating in the creation of model enclosures for a new animal exhibit. Collaborating with one of the world's leading experts in endangered species management gives students invaluable industry connections, knowledge, and practical experience to enhance their CVs and skillsets. Plus, it's a fantastic opportunity to engage in interactive, outdoor learning within nature. Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust
