Georgia 4-H Animal Science Programs offer extraordinary educational opportunities in contests and projects that challenge 4-Hers with real-life issues as they learn about agriculture through raising, showing, and evaluating livestock, equine, and poultry. These programs give students the opportunity to practice and acquire new knowledge in the fields of animal science, business, time management and leadership. Other animal science projects explore the care of companion and specialty animal feeding, handling, grooming, training, and veterinary care.
