On Feb. 24, children and their parents will have the opportunity to get outside and learn about the tracks and traces that our native wildlife leave behind.

The program “Who Goes There? Tracking Pocono Wildlife,” led by an experienced environmental educator, starts inside as children and their families learn about critters who live in the woods and along the cold, pure streams of the Poconos. How animals make tracks and what to look for in identifying tracks will be covered.

How do animals move in the forest? Where do they gather to drink? Can you tell the difference between a dog track and a coyote?

After the classroom introduction, everyone will move outside for a walk in search of tracks. Learn how different tracks look on the ground compared to on a screen, and enjoy being outdoors in winter — bug-free!

The event takes place at 10:30 a.m. to noon Feb. 24 at the Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center, 8050 Running Valley Road, Bartonsville. There is no charge, but registration is required.

This activity is suitable for children of all ages. Children and adults should dress to be outside and be prepared to walk on snow-covered trails.

This event is part of the Water Wiser Kids Series sponsored by Brodhead Watershed Association.
