Montana WILD announces March Madness

During March, Montana WILD programs will focus on more than just raptors. Programs will be offered Mondays and Fridays at 4 p.m. with a different focus each week. These programs are free, great for the whole family and no registration is required.

March 2 and 6: Eagles

Start out the month by learning about these iconic birds and meeting our resident bald eagle.

March 9 and 13: Scat

Animal scat comes in all shapes and sizes. Come learn how to identify different animals’ scat and even make models of scat that you can bring home. Get ready to get messy!

March 16 and 20: Reptiles and Amphibians

Some of the most underappreciated species in Montana, reptiles and amphibians, live all around us. Come learn about and meet turtles, snakes and salamanders.

March 23 and 27: Turkey Vultures

While their taste for dead, rotting animals can make them seem disgusting, turkey vultures are incredibly important to our ecosystems. *The Friday program will feature a LIVE turkey vulture visiting from Zoo Montana in Billings.

Monday March 30: Marvelous Moose

Lynne Dixon was a naturalist in Glacier National Park for 23 years. She will be here to teach us all about marvelous Moose in Montana. *No programs on Friday April 3.
