ZooChat Challenge Global 2020

Also a question based on rule number four. At Wildlife HQ they were doing a sugar glider “animal encounter” where someone got to hold a sugar glider. This was done in public view of all the visitors so I obviously saw the sugar glider. I didn’t pay for the animal encounter I just saw it as a member of the “Joe Blow” public. Can I count the sugar glider for this challenge?

Yes. Any education animals shown off during a public talk or show are countable.
