Event details

Does a box turtle eat the same thing as a snapping turtle? Is there really a salamander in there? Is the snake slimy? Let’s find out! Attendance at this program is limited, and this is your chance to see up close as a naturalist feeds all the nature center’s resident animals. Ask questions and learn more about the creatures that call Hidden Oaks home in a small group atmosphere. In addition to fruits, vegetables and leafy greens, this program will also include feeding live insects and frozen, thawed fish or mice.
