Free children’s program teaches how to tell similar animals apart

The Werner Wildlife Museum will host the first of three Summer Animal House for Children events on Thursday, June 12 at 1 p.m. at 405 East 15th Street. The program topic is “Not This But That.” The free drop-in program will begin at 1 p.m. and will show children how to tell similar animals apart.

“Not This But That” looks at how we can sometimes mix up animals, like a turtle and a tortoise or a bison and a buffalo. But how do you learn to tell the difference? This fun program for elementary school children will provide the answers with a 30-minute presentation, followed by a 30-minute activity.

For additional information, call the Werner Wildlife Museum at 307-235-2108 or visit 405 East 15th Street, Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
