Zoo ppt (1)
The document summarizes a formative evaluation of self-guided school visits at Woodland Park Zoo. The evaluation aims to determine if the learning goals of K-12 teachers for self-guided visits are being met and identify how the zoo's resources can better facilitate successful tours. Data was collected through observations of school groups on tours and surveys of 20-30 teachers after their visits to understand their goals, preparation, and if the zoo is helping them achieve their objectives. The results will help the zoo prioritize its resources to improve the experience for self-guided school groups.

The document provides information about the ocelot, including its physical characteristics, habitat, diet, reproduction, and adaptations. It describes the ocelot as a medium-sized spotted cat found in Central and South America. Key facts include that ocelots have retractable claws, large eyesight to hunt at night, and range in size from 26-39 inches long. Their coat allows for camouflage and they live in forests and thick brush. The document also evaluates improvements that could be made to the Cleveland Zoo ocelot habitat, such as making it larger and more natural.
