Program Description

Event Details

Backyard Wildlife – All About Opossums!

Join us for an educational program with Pam and Bill Lefferts of Ferncroft Wildlife Rescue in Woodstock, CT. We will learn about wildlife rehabilitation, the role of rehabbers, and discuss various topics such as supporting wildlife during winter, preparing emergency roadside kits, learning more about becoming a rehabber or wildlife volunteer, etc. We will meet their opossum ambassadors Sherman and Mango. Children will be allowed to pet the animals and have their photo taken with the animals. 

FOR AGES 6 & UP!    PLEASE REGISTER ALL CHILDREN THAT WILL ATTEND. DO NOT REGISTER ADULTS. 

This program is sponsored by Clinton Land Conservation Trust and funded by the Community Foundation of Middlesex County Mary Janvrin and Natalie Janvrin Wiggins Fund for Birds, Other Animals, and Nature.
