Misunderstood, Not Mean: Skunks, Coyotes, & Other Wild Neighbors

This program focuses on animals that often receive a bad reputation. Children explore why certain animals—like skunks, coyotes, bobcats, snakes, bats, and others—are often feared, disliked, or misunderstood. Through games, stories, and hands-on activities, kids replace fear with facts, empathy, and curiosity, learning the truth behind the myths, discovering how these animals help ecosystems, and gaining tools for safe, respectful coexistence.
