LINCOLNVILLE — The Wildlife Workshop will be held on April 19, 2022, at the 4-H Camp and Learning Center at Tanglewood, in Lincolnville, and on April 22, 2022 at the Sportsman’s Alliance of Maine in Augusta. Youth ages 9 to 19 who are interested in learning more about Maine wildlife and habitats can attend either workshop.

Activities include examining animal pelts and skulls, tree identification, and lots of time outdoors. Teen participants will delve deeper into ecological concepts and discuss potential career paths. All participants will also learn about how to get involved in 4-H and the Wildlife Habitat Education Program.

The workshop is free, but spaces are limited, so please be sure you can commit to attending before registering, said University of Maine Cooperative Extension, in a news release. You do not need to be enrolled in 4-H to participate.
