Language and The Body Zoo Trip, Fall 2009


Tad Schoffner, a zookeeper at the Cleveland Zoo, took members of the class on a tour of the zoo's extensive primate collection.


Drawing on his long term relationships with the animals, Tad described the communicative practices of each species.


As a special treat, he also took us to the rhino barn and let us pet the rhinos!
