Education Department and Programs

Part of our mission at Project Wildlife is to promote wildlife conservation by teaching children and adults about the beauty and value of our wildlife. Because California's wildlife belongs to all of us, we want to encourage stewardship and appreciation of our native species. The continuing loss of habitat brings wildlife in contact with people now more than ever before. It is imperative that people learn about the importance of conserving habitat for wildlife. We will bring our education animals into your classroom, your scout group, your church or service group and talk about wildlife and their role in our environment. We will tell their stories because they are unable to.

We ask for prior notice, about one month, when scheduling a program.  All of our presenters are volunteers and we may not always be able fulfill your request.  Please also understand that our animal ambassadors may not always want to go on a program and we never force them, so we ask that you remain flexible in which type of animal you expect to attend.  Please select a Bird, Mammal, or Combination program and allow us to decide which animals to bring.  Once we have a volunteer and animal lined up for your request, payment will be required to confirm the program.

Programs start at $75 for a small group and $300 for an assembly. Additional fees may apply.
