Join Burlington Mammal Tracking Project Coordinator Sophie Mazowita for an intro to wildlife tracking talk at Leddy Arena this Thursday:

Ever wondered what wild creatures are moving through our backyards and natural areas? This hour-long presentation will introduce you to the large mammals of our city and how to read the tracks and sign they leave behind. Featuring photos and video footage, you'll learn about the secretive lives of our wild residents and how to tell apart gray fox, red fox, coyote, otter, fisher, moose, deer, beaver, mink, porcupine and black bear. You'll also learn how you can contribute sightings to the Burlington Mammal Tracking Project, which seeks to identify wildlife corridors and road crossings throughout our city.

Recommended for ages 12+. $5-10 suggested donation to the Burlington Tracking Project.

This event is taking place in the Lounge area of Leddy Arena.
