 Twilight Camp
Have you ever wondered why a giraffe’s neck so long? Did you
know that one of the elephant’s closest relatives is the
size of a football? What evidence does DNA provide us about
animal ancestry and where do humans fit in?
These are just a few questions that are answered by our new
and exciting Twilight Night Camp. This program is
specifically designed to meet the Arizona state science
standards, and will focus on the topics of evolution and
adaptation. Geared towards high school students, this is the
first Night Camp specially designed for secondary education.
Campers will learn more about the exciting topic of
evolution through guided nighttime tours, up-close
interactions with animals, hands-on activities, and
multimedia presentations. Covering topics from adaptations
of species and how these changes can lead to the formation

humans impact the evolution of other species on our planet.
