Can you help match a wild animal baby with its mother? Discover how we use clues such as fur, feathers, and scales, shapes and special features to learn what group each belongs to. Students will explore different animal groups and match babies to their mothers with hands on activities. This program provides children the opportunity to see live animals up close.
This learning experience can be completed in person at Burr Oaks, virtually, or as a self-guided presentation.
Burr Oak Woods Nature Center is managed by the Missouri Department of Conservation. Nestled in the heart of this 1,071-acre conservation area are six hiking trails, an interpretive center with educational exhibits including at 3,000 gallon freshwater aquarium, wildlife viewing room and a variety of live amphibians and reptiles.
