The annual Animal Crackers program provides
New York youth with fun, hands-on, science-oriented learning experiences on
Animal Science topics. This workshop is for 4-H members interested in learning
more about their favorite livestock, companion or pet animal species; emphasis
on different species groupings and activities varies annually. Participants
will learn about different aspects of animal care, interact and exchange
information with faculty, staff, students, professional producers, industry
experts, and more, utilizing the unique facilities of Cornell University.
Hands-on workshops are planned for each species group.
