Learn about one of Ohio’s most misunderstood mammals, the eastern coyote, with Warren County Park District staff naturalist and permitted wildlife rehabilitator Shannon Pennington at this FREE community event. If you have seen a coyote in the area, you’re not alone! Are these animals a real threat to people and pets? What should you do if you see one? Should we be doing more to eradicate this species from our community? If you’ve never seen a coyote up close, you can check out a taxidermy coyote mount and pelt at this program. All ages are welcome to this 45-minute PowerPoint presentation followed by audience Q&A.
