Maine Mammals: Their Habitats and How to Track Them
Leigh Macmillen Hayes
Fridays, Jan. 16, 23 & 30 10am - 12 pm
Though we might see the mammals of Maine anywhere, most species have specific habitat needs that can only be met in certain ecosystems. We’ll spend time learning about the mammals and their habitats during session one. In session two, we’ll learn more about the track patterns of many of these species. Both session one and two will be indoors, while session three will find us exploring the Narrow Gauge Trail in Perley Mills Community Forest in Denmark. It's a snowmobile trail, so it should be rather easy to walk with microspikes or stabilizers.
Once again, Maine Naturalist Leigh Macmillen Hayes will share her knowledge and sense of wonder in three sessions exploring the mammals of Maine. Participants will learn about their habits, habitats, and the signs they leave for us to find.
