At the core of our mission is educating the community about peacefully coexisting with wildlife. We are dedicated to inspiring the next generation of wildlife conservationists, empowering them to take meaningful actions that create a brighter future for both wildlife and our planet.
Through our Outreach Program, we bring exciting and educational wildlife experiences directly to your location! Currently, we are offering free, interactive programs designed for summer camps and schools in the Broward County area. These sessions are thoughtfully crafted to be both engaging and informative, offering participants hands-on opportunities to learn about wildlife, conservation, and how everyone can play a role in protecting the natural world around us.
Whether you’re a teacher, camp organizer, or community leader in the tri-county area, our programs are perfect for fostering curiosity, sparking inspiration, and cultivating a lifelong appreciation for wildlife in young minds.
