Cub Scout Evening Program - Wildlife Academics Pin Tiger, Wolf and Bear Scouts
During this evening program, scouts will work on their Wildlife Academic Pin and enjoy seeing the Zoo grounds at night. Scouts will learn about animals that live in their own back yard to animals that live around the world. During this program scouts will:
- See and touch live animals while learning about camouflage
- Learn how to bring wildlife into your backyard by creating a birdfeeder
- Learn how to identify some common animal tracks and make a plaster cast of your favorite track to take home
- Learn about reptiles and amphibians by completing a flashlight scavenger hunt
In order to complete your pin you will need to observe your birdfeeder at home for one week. When all activities are complete you may show your booklet to your cub master to receive your patch or pin.
