EDUCATION & OUTREACH

Are you or your group interested in learning more about the wildlife of South Florida and how you can help? Join us for one (or all) of our educational programs!

Junior Wildlife Vet Kids Program

Sponsored by South Federal Animal Hospital

Your child can immerse themselves in the world of wildlife medicine with our Junior Wildlife Veterinarian Kids Program. Junior Vets will learn the steps we take to rehabilitate wildlife in our hospital for successful release back into the wild, and treat a patient of their very own. Please note: No handling of live wildlife occurs during this program. This program is open to ages 6-12 years old.

Nocturnal Wonders Night Hike

Find out “Hoooo’s” out and about making raucous noises in the night. Join us at Snyder Park to discover the secret life of South Florida’s nocturnal residents and learn about adaptations that allow wildlife to thrive at night. Our Animal Ambassadors will make special appearances and we might even see wildlife going about their nightly routines. This night hike is family friendly and open to all ages.
