The mammals of Washington County are the focus of this class. Find out who is on the bottom of the food pyramid and who is at the top. How do the skulls of predators differ from prey animals? What senses have they developed to capture prey, or avoid being captured? A two part evening class is followed by an optional field trip to the Chehalem Ridge Natural Area in search of tracks and signs of all the wildlife we seldom see.
