Description: Explore the fascinating world of bats, spiders, snakes, and opossums during this 1.5-hour Adult Lifelong Learning course led by Ohio Nature Education. The program will dispel common myths and share natural history facts about these often-feared animals, including how they benefit the environment. Live animals will be part of the presentation. The program will be presented by Manon VanSchoyck, Founder and Executive Director of Ohio Nature Education, a nonprofit volunteer organization that provides a home for more than 50 wild animals that can no longer live in the wild.
