New Ways to Tour IEAS!


With the school year on the horizon, it’s a great time to start thinking about field trips. The Sanctuary offers conservation education tours that allow students to become completely immersed in new information with the added excitement of seeing the subject material right in front of them! There are few better ways to learn about exotic animals and conservation than to be observing them first hand!

Is your school (or your child’s school) too far away to visit IEAS here in Boyd, TX? Are the students who want to come to IEAS too young to take a tour in person (less than seven years old)? Well, don’t you worry – IEAS has gone VIRTUAL! The Sanctuary now offers virtual tours for students via Skype! It’s a great way for students around the country to meet the Sanctuary animals and learn about their natural histories and conservation efforts. The classroom will follow its tour guide through the Sanctuary, meeting tigers, lions, jaguars, grizzly bears, black bears, coatis, and much more!

We are so happy to be taking advantage of the opportunities that technology is offering us. You should, too! Call 940-433-5091 or e-mail us at iefsedu@aol.com for more information!
