Description

How much do you know about the diverse and fascinating wildlife of San Diego? When you walk in open space parks, do you know which plants are native and which are invasive? What problems do non-native plants and animals create? Participants will learn to identify animal signs and habitats, and their interactions with native plants seen on nature trails; they will understand their importance in our ecosystem, the human benefits, and our place in this interdependent web of life. Come discover what’s out there so you’re able to better appreciate nature and safely have FUN going WILD!

This course includes a 90min PowerPoint presentation at Oasis, a lunch break at Mission Trails Regional Park, and a FREE guided walk on trails in MTRP to observe the flora and animal habitats discussed in class; perhaps we’ll be lucky enough to spot fauna, as well.

Bring your own bag lunch, water, and wear closed-toed shoes & sun visor/hat. Immediately following the class at Oasis, we will meet in the Visitor Center parking lot, One Father Junipero Trail, San Diego, 92119.
