Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens

Education Specialist, Jifu Jennings, and Lead Zoo Teacher, Emily Geist, introduce us to Roberta, a red-footed tortoise which is native to South America. Jifu gives us an update on the dates still available for the Asian Lantern Festival, and how the lanterns are created. She and Emily also share some fascinating facts about the red-footed tortoise, including the fact that they can also be carnivorous.
