An Introduction to Wildlife Tracks and Animal Signs for Kids
Saturday, 27 February from 10-11:30
Space is limited to 8 children (for physical distancing purposes)
Recommended ages: 5-10

Underhill's Conservation Commission and the Natural Resources Inventory Commission is hosting a series of wildlife, woodland, and other natural history events to educate Underhill residents about the unique natural resources in our town. Join us for our kick-off event!

Have you ever wondered who is moving through your backyard while you're not looking? Animals leave behind clues like tracks and scat that help us identify who made them. In this short outdoor event, we'll first learn about how animals move (hopping, waddling, etc.) and your kids will have a chance to practice moving around like a few of our local animals. We'll also practice measuring the size of the tracks and the patterns. Then we'll head into the meadow and along the brook to search for and identify animal tracks and sign. This event will be outdoors—please dress appropriately; masks required. Please register in advance by February 24th by emailing Valstori@yahoo.com. Val will provide meeting details, etc.
