Have you ever met an owl?
The beautiful non-releasable owl ambassadors from Center for Wildlife show off their adaptations for night hunting. Learn about the variety of New England species, their habitats, diets, calls, and tips on how to spot them in the wild. The Presenter will also focus on their importance in balancing prey populations, current challenges, and how to help. Using the Center for Wildlife's amazing non-releasable animal ambassadors and interactive displays, the phenomenal adaptations of owls will be explored and discovered. This hour long program will connect the audience with these beautiful ambassadors of their species as well as provide their natural and personal histories and empower audience members to help to steward the environment that we all share.
You can ask all your questions when you come meet and say hello to the Center for Wildlife owl friends!
This is the third program of our Fall 2024 Wildlife Series, cosponsored with the Center for Wildlife. Join us again on December 10 (Birds of Prey).
Our Cosponsor - CENTER FOR WILDLIFE
Center for Wildlife proudly serves the New England region typically managing 2,000 patients each year (native wildlife injured because of vehicle collisions, domestic pets, pollution, fishing lines, oil spills, and other human-related causes), representing more than 190 species of birds, reptiles, and mammals. The goal of their wildlife clinic is to not only medically treat and provide rehabilitation to injured wild animals so that they can be released back to the wild but also use data collected to better support broad systemic change.
For over 20 years, Center for Wildlife has also provided environmental education outreach programs bringing live animal ambassadors to schools, libraries, state parks, senior centers, professional conferences, and many other venues. Their Project Wild educators now provide a unique learning experience to over 13,000 individuals each year and enjoys partnerships with local groups committed to environmental education.
