Wildlife Education School Program

This unique program is built over 15 years of first-hand experience in caring for over 12,000 orphaned and injured wild animals, ranging from flying squirrels to river otters, and resolving more than 100,000 challenging human/wildlife conflict calls. Our Wildlife Education School Program is designed to:
  • Foster an appreciation and understanding of the natural environment in today's youth;
  • Get kids excited about wildlife and nature; and
  • Provide students with the tools to coexist with nature and to become backyard stewards.
Courses consist of a power point presentation packed with great photos and videos, hands-on materials, a wildlife detective trivia game and a question session. We are currently visiting students in grades from JK to 8 at schools throughout the Ottawa region. If you would like more information about the OCWC's Wildlife Education School Program, or are interesting in booking a visit for your school please contact:

​An excellent presentation that brings the issues associated with wildlife in our community into our classroom. The presenter is very gifted in getting this important message across to elementary aged students.

​The students definitely enjoyed the presentation. It was informative and instructive and the hands-on  materials kept the kids engaged.

The presentation was great, students chose to continue through lunch, which would never happen with one of my lessons.
