Extreme Animals Summer Camp: Wilson the Wood Duck

As Extreme Animals summer campers learn about animals that adapt and survive, they learned about wood ducks. Unlike other ducks, wood ducks nest in trees to survive.

Wilson, one of the Aquarium's wood duck pair, visited summer campers today. In their own words, campers  explain why meeting Wilson was their favorite activity.
