Eye on UMSL: A place to perch

Student at petting zoo on campus

Dylan Bonnett, a freshman nursing major at the University of Missouri–St. Louis, gives Patty LaBelle, a Polish black and white laced chicken, a place to perch. The Office of Student Involvement hosted a petting zoo on the lawn outside of the Student Recreation and Wellness Center on Sept. 27. Students had the opportunity to pet rabbits, chickens, llamas, lambs, goats, turtles and more.
