Explore the world of wildlife science through outdoor exploration and hands-on activities with the experienced staff of the Springfield Museums. We will pack up the lab and visit the shores of the Connecticut River at the Fannie Stebbins Wildlife Refuge and hike the trails at the Fort River Wildlife Refuge for additional up close encounters with the natural world. Test your skills, learn how to identify and collect plant and animal specimens, then examine your discoveries in the lab along with the living collection of fish and reptiles at the Springfield Science Museum.
