Meeting the Desert Tortoise. Photo by Tory Davis

There is nothing more memorable for your students than having live wild animals visit your classroom!

Your group will have the opportunity to meet three of WildCare’s rescued non-releasable wild animals during this unforgettable presentation.

By sharing their rescue stories, these animals act as ambassadors for their species in order to increase awareness of their plight in the wild.

Possible wildlife visitors include a Virginia Opossum, California Desert Tortoise, Rosy Boa, California King Snake, and Western Pond Turtle!

Whether you are looking for an overview of California Wildlife or a more specific topic to fit into your class curriculum, this program is sure to leave a lasting impression!

$260 for 1st presentation, $200 for second presentation, $1 per mile travel fee ($10 minimum).

60 minute presentation, 1st grade to adult, 30 person maximum per presentation, 2 presentation maximum per day.

Our Wildlife Ambassador presentations include a short PowerPoint presentation about WildCare and an introduction to three of our non-releasable, educational wild animals.

We can tailor the theme of the presentation to your class/group’s needs, however, we are unable to guarantee particular animals (though you can make a request).

We are currently unable to bring birds off-site due to a local outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI).

We are currently offering reptile-based adaptation programs, and opossums may also by brought to indoor programs only.

Please confirm that you are interested in a reptile-focused Animal Adaptations program, and please let us know any specific needs or requests.

Animal Adaptations programs are appropriate for all ages.
