Game and Fish Wildlife Open House

November 17, 2011

Our Wolf cub scout den went and visited the AZ Game and Fish Wildlife Center Open House.  They are a volunteer organization that rehabilitates wild animals that have been injured and tries to get them released back into the wild, or keeps them for educational purposes if they are unable to be released.  This was a great opportunity to see some cool animals up close and learn a lot!  The boys had a great time!

We were able to see lots of different birds and learn about them.  These are the bird houses that our den built and donated for our Bird elective and Wildlife Conservation project.  They were selling them for donations to the Wildlife Center.  Whatever they didn't sell would be used for nesting some of the birds!  Cool!
