Monthly Program: Wild About Fort Bend: Meet the Animals, Learn the Mission

Join us for an engaging evening on Thursday, October 2nd with Kristi Norman and Claire Schwabenland of Fort Bend Wildlife Rescue as they share the inspiring origin of their organization, introduce the species they work with, and explain the importance of coexisting with native wildlife. Learn about the unique wildlife needs of Fort Bend County, the questions they hear most from residents, and the common misconceptions and challenges they face in their mission. The program will begin at 7:00pm but we will have an early visit with the animal educational ambassadors during social hour at 6:00pm.— a rare chance to meet some of the amazing wildlife up close! This is a perfect program for nature lovers, families, and anyone curious about local wildlife and how we can live in harmony with it.
