Mysterious Mustelids: A Closer Look at Vermont Weasels with Bree Furfey

  • Green Mountain Technical and Career Center Lamoille Union High School, Route 15 Hyde Park, VT 05655 U.S. (map)

Our annual Nature Talk this year focuses on Mysterious Mustelids - the clever and elusive members of the weasel family! This program will explore the six mustelid species present in Vermont: fisher, American marten, long-tailed weasel, shorttailed weasel, mink, and river otter. Learn about their unique behaviors, ecology, conservation challenges, and current research being conducted in Vermont to ensure their survival in the future. Vermont Fish and Wildlife biologist Bree Furfey will bring along artifacts and specimens for us to examine. You’ll even learn how to track and observe these species for your own outdoor adventures!

Admission is free (though donations to FGRR are always welcome) and is open to all community members. Please join us!
