Young scientists recently participated in the Zion Nature Center’s Junior Naturalists program, where kids spend a day learning what it takes to work at the center. The students partner with the center’s staff to clean and feed the turtles, snakes and other animals. For more, visit zionsville-in.gov/270/Zion-Nature-Center.
