San Francisco Zoo: The Scoop on Poop

Kids all love to talk about poop. Now they can learn about it too. See the bottom for some links to good poop books for the kiddos.

The San Francisco Zoo just opened a new exhibit called the Scoop on Poop, and it will be around until May 11, 2014.

At the exhibit you'll get to listen in on an animal's digestive system, learn poop words from different countries, compete in dung beetle races, track wild animals by clues left in their scat (aka poop),and see how long it takes for an elephant to poop its body weight.

The zoo boasts that their exhibit is INTERACTIVE, and with large colorful graphic panels and 3-D models. Before you go, learn some turd trivia.
