 On Sunday, January 13 at 10 a.m., come to the Hudson Highlands Nature Museum’s Outdoor Discovery Center, on Muser Drive, across from 174 Angola Road, Cornwall, to learn about the scat (animal poop) left behind by woodland creatures.

Join Environmental Educator Carl Heitmuller to discover clues not only about what animal has been present but also about their habitats. Learn how to identify who left what behind! “As in the case of Turkey scat”, remarked Heitmuller, “the shape can determine whether a male or female was present.”  Weather permitting, after the program, take a walk with Carl to search for evidence of scat at the Outdoor Discovery Center.

For adults with or without children, and for children ages 5 and older. Admission: $7/Adults - $5/Children. Museum Members: $5/Adults - $3/Children.

For information visit the museum’s website at hhhnaturemuseum.org or call 845-534-5506, ext. 204.
