Conservation talk - The Eye Talk

We recently embarked on our first conservation talk, titled "Eye Talk” led by esteemed experts Leoni Joubert and Prof. Wayne Gillan. This captivating session delved into the intricate workings of animal eyes and their remarkable ability to perceive the world. Through this enlightening discourse, we discovered that the animal kingdom encompasses an astounding array of eight distinct eye types. Furthermore, we were intrigued to learn that while dogs possess the ability to discern colors, they lack the red color receptors, rendering them incapable of perceiving the color red.

Buoyed by the success of this inaugural event, we are eagerly devising a series of forthcoming conservation talks. These educational endeavours aim to bridge the gap between myths and facts, fostering a more enlightened understanding among the general public. Be sure to keep an eye on our social media platforms as we unveil an exciting line-up of future talks. Together, let us embark on a journey of conservation awareness and appreciation for the wondrous creatures that inhabit our world.
