Wild in the Meadows (Trumpington Meadows): Small mammal trapping
About this Event
This is part of a series of activities for families throughout the year on Trumpington Meadows Nature Reserve
In this session, join the Cambridgeshire Mammal Group and Becca Badger to investigate the small mammals that live on Trumpington Meadows Nature Reserve. If you wish to join us the evening before (at 6pm, this is optional), we will be setting out humane small mammal traps, and then early morning we will check to see what we have caught. After we have recorded and released all of the animals, we will go for a short walk.
This session is perfect for ages 7-11 but older children will also enjoy it. It is not appropriate for children under 5 for health and safety reasons.
These are family sessions so children need to be accompanied by a responsible adult. The sessions are designed for everyone to enjoy.
