ZSL London Zoo’s scientists are taking over the Zoo and they need your help!

From 26th July until the 31st August, they will be running real public experiments in the Zoo looking at human behaviour in groups.

The twenty-minute experiments will take the form of group tasks and will look at coordination of group behaviour. The results of the experiments will be analysed and published in recognised scientific journals.

The ZSL scientists are keeping the details secret so as to not bias any of the results, but have promised that the experiments will be great fun and completely harmless.

All zoo visitors aged between 21 and 60 are invited to take part and there will be Animal Adoption prizes for the winning team.
