Columbus Zoo debuts new education building with help from donor

"Oh no, it sinked," one child lamented as an object fell to the bottom.
But Carrie Hauck, who was leading the lesson on buoyancy, made it clear that nothing went wrong. The senior educator was teaching the Little Explorers Club about the characteristics that allow waterfowl such as ducks, geese and swans to float on water, such as hollow bones and air sacs inside their bodies.
Now educators have an inviting, spacious place to make lessons like Thursday's happen, in the new conservation education building at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. 
The nearly 8,000-square-foot, single-story building, located just outside the zoo's main entrance, officially debuted this month. It was made possible by donor Suzie Edwards, for whom it is named. Construction started in late 2019.
