The class is at the Tropical Education Center (TEC) for a second night tonight. The beautiful TEC is located in central Belize right across from the famous Belize Zoo. Dr. Isabelle Paquet-Durand, a wildlife veterinarian in Belize (who is hosting several NMSU interns this summer at her new vet clinic) gave a presentation on conservation and human-wildlife conflict. In the afternoon, the class re-painted/re-furbished the spider monkey enclosure which had been damaged by Hurricane Richard in late 2010.
And tomorrow...ATM cave... :)
