Event Details
The Riverton Branch welcomes back our friends from Center for Wildlife for their Amazing Adaptations program! Meet some of the Center's non-releasable wildlife ambassadors at this educational program for children. This special event is recommend for ages 6-12, though younger children are welcome with parent/caregiver supervision. We plan to host this event outdoors, but will move indoors in case of rain.
"Native wildlife have amazing adaptations they use to survive extreme cold, heat, wind and other elements. With assistance from our live, non-releasable raptor, reptile and mammal ambassadors, we will examine the special tools for surviving the New England seasons such as an owl’s feathered talons or hibernation and migration. Educators will focus on seasonal wildlife and their adaptations as well as tips on spotting and helping local wildlife."
