Wildlife Center of Virginia

The Museum is pleased to announce a new series of special programs presented to school groups in cooperation with the nationally recognized Wildlife Center of Virginia.  Central to these programs are animals rehabilitated by the Wildlife Center with presentations by its educators on the natural environment and the impact of human settlement and development on the environment and wildlife.  The programs are conducted at the Museum's educational facilities and are 45 to 60 minutes in length.  The programs are designed to complement the Museum's educational programs and to incorporate Social Science and Science Standards of Learning into one all-day field trip. http://www.wildlifecenter.org
