11:30: Boundin’ Furbearers – Ever wonder about the difference between a red fox and a grey fox? Did you know that grey fox are the only member of the canine family that can climb trees? Do opossums really play dead? What is a fisher? Join our Education and Volunteer Coordinator Rachel Morrow to learn about many of the various furry animals that live in the woods around us!
