Seoul Grand Park Operates Insect Class to Protect Our Disappearing Insects

Spring Break Special, Insect Classroom Held

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Seoul Grand Park announced on the 17th that it will conduct educational programs on the necessity of protecting disappearing insects and the environment for visitors, including children and families visiting Seoul Zoo, for five days from the 20th to the 24th during the spring break.

In particular, in this insect class, participants can learn about eight species of endangered wild animal specimens held by the National Institute of Biological Resources (located in Incheon).

In the corner titled "What if insects disappeared from the ecosystem?", the booklet "Please Protect Disappearing Insects" informs about the importance of insects in the ecosystem and the seriousness of their endangerment, and encourages efforts to protect the environment to save insects.

Participating children can also experience creating their own insect book by completing drawings of the insects they learned about through the specimens and booklets.

Education applications can be made through advance reservations or on-site. Advance applications are available via the Seoul Grand Park website and Seoul Public Service Reservation. On-site applications may require waiting depending on the congestion level of the indoor insect exhibition hall.

Gwon Suwan, Director of Seoul Grand Park Zoo, said, "Since this is an opportunity to see endangered insects that are usually hard to encounter at Seoul Grand Park, I hope it will be a meaningful time for many visitors to Seoul Grand Park."
