PROMOTING WILDLIFE CONSERVATION THROUGH POSITIVE EXPERIENCES.
|
Ohio Canid Center's goal is to educate the public not only on wolves and their importance in the ecosystem; but also to bring a better understanding for other wild canine species. Isn't it strange that we love our domestic dog, but fear the wolf, hate the coyote, or see the fox as a nuisance? If we understand something better, then we can more easily learn to appreciate and coexist with it. We do this with the help of our ambassador animals, who change the perspective of those who meet them. These are moments that stay with the viewer for the rest of their lives, and in turn help inspire a change in the way everyone sees wildlife. |

Program Topics, Details & Pricing
All educational events include a picture slideshow and have an ambassador animal present (no petting is permitted). A table setup is also included with pelts, bones, and paw print castings for attendees to handle and learn from. Since there is a slideshow element, indoor locations are preferred. Programs start at $250 and a travel fee is added for locations outside of Licking County. We can visit libraries, schools, scouts troops, and more. There is not a limit on the number of attendees, and presentations are designed for middle school age or older.
