OHEC offers several different Touch of the Wild Education (ToW) Trailers that travel TO the school, club, show, or event.
The trailers offer a unique education opportunity to explore by touching and engaging with displays such as: more than three dozen species of fish and wildlife, including full-body mounts of a wolf, turkey and beaver; shoulder mounts of deer, bison and antelope; birds and fish; antlers and horns; furs and feathers. So much to explore!
A great way to connect with nature right on your school or event grounds and inspire future adventures.
Trailers can be structured or self guided inquiry that is multi-disciplinary.
