Mr. Andrew Jacobs of the Jacksonville Zoo visited Satilla Regional Library in Douglas and Pearson Wednesday. He presented a zoo show with a reptile, mammal, and amphibian including a salamander, Florida box turtle, and short-tailed opposom.
Mr. Jacobs also explained each animal and gave interesting talks about each one. He walked around and everyone had the opportunity to see the animals, with the option of petting the Florida box turtle.
He answered many questions from the audience, and everyone had a great time!
The next Summer Reading Program performance will be Mr. Bill Packard of Magic Man Entertainment who will be holding a magic show called The Reading Games on Wednesday, June 29, at the Douglas/Coffee County Public Library at 11 a.m. and the Willacoochee Public Library at 2:30 p.m.
