Tracks & Scats & Signs, Oh My!
Suggested for 8 to 10 years old.
Youth participants, accompanied by an adult, will step into the role of wildlife detectives as they investigate tracks, scat, and other signs of mammals in the garden. Through interactive activities and an outdoor evidence search, we 'll practice the same skills scientists use to study and understand wildlife.
You'll also get an introduction to ecoEXPLORE, an incentive-based community science program developed by The North Carolina Arboretum. By making real-world observations and completing fun challenges, youth participants can earn badges and prizes throughout the year.
Don 't miss out on this opportunity to equip your budding explorers with the knowledge and tools to continue (or begin!) their science journey!
