Marine Medics

How do aquarium vets care for all the different animals at the New York Aquarium? In this camp, you will practice being an aquatic veterinarian and investigate the tools of the trade. We will learn how to diagnose and treat animals like designing a splint for a penguin or learning how to move a shark. Get early access and meet an aquatic invertebrate.
