Dissecting Owl Pellets

Hands-on children's sessions dissecting owl pellets to find skulls, teeth and bones, learning about predators, prey and nocturnal birds.

Children aged 5-11 can step into the shoes of a wildlife scientist, dissecting owl pellets to discover the remains of an owl's last meal. Participants search for skulls, teeth and other bones while learning about predators, prey and nocturnal birds. Hour-long sessions run on 27 and 29 October, and children must be accompanied by an adult.
