Marion Natural History Museum462 viewsThe Marion Natural History Museum's after school group had a great time learning the difference between wild animal tracks, including coyote, raccoon, and bobcat. We also enjoyed practicing how to move like various animals by waddling, walking, bounding, and hopping.

Many thanks to Jennifer Carlino for sharing her considerable expertise with us
