The Young Zoologists' Association's junior section celebrated its 10th anniversary in October. Junior YZA has been established with the aim of seeding the need to "Protect Nature" in the young minds and carrying out its aims successfully.
Junior Zoologists meet on Saturdays at the zoo, twice a month. The kids are taught simple facts about the identification of animals and how to appreciate nature around them. There are several field trips to wildernesses, which allow them to have a close encounter with wildlife. Additionally, Junior YZA is also developing the various skills of these kids. The paintings and sketches done by Junior Zoologists are really commendable. To celebrate this success, YZA has also printed 5 postcards using illustrations of 5 young artists who emerged as a result of Junior YZA.
