About This Workshop:
Ever stumbled across a skull on the trail, a pile of bones on the beach, or mysterious feathers in the forest, and wondered, “What happened here?” This session introduces practical, easy-to-use techniques for identifying wildlife remains you may encounter while guiding walks and programs. We'll explore the clues hidden in bones, skulls, teeth, and carcasses, and learn how to piece together the story left behind. You'll leave with new skills and fascinating stories to share with your audiences.
