The Mammal Husbandry certificate is designed to enhance the Zoo Keeping AAS degree or introduce students to animal careers other than Zoo Keeping. Students learn about the importance of animal conservation programs in ex-situ and in-situ environments throughout the world. Additionally, students learn about mammalian biology and husbandry, and the captive care and management of mammals. Students can choose electives that focus on primates (lesser primates and great apes), wild cats, ungulates, elephants, and bats.
