Virtual Tour of the Coral Lab with Thomas Wippenbeck

Join Thomas Wippenbeck from the Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute on a virtual field trip to the Zoo's Science Gallery, where he manages and keeps several tanks of live corals! Thomas will explain what a coral is, why these animals are important, and how he keeps them alive at the Zoo. Thomas will also share how he got interested in a science career and how his work at the Zoo is important for coral and coral reef conservation.
