Join Conserving Carolina Speaker Series at Walnut Creek Preserve on Saturday, April 14th when Nina Fischesser, Director of the May Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, will present “Wildlife Rehabilitation in Higher Education: at the May Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Lees-McRae College” at the Anne Elizabeth Suratt Nature Center at Walnut Creek Preserve at 10:30 a.m.

This is a free program, open to the public; bring the kids to see the live animals!

Under the guidance of Director Nina Fischesser and veterinarian Dr. Amber McNamara, students simultaneously contribute to the success of the wildlife rehabilitation/education program while engaging in a one-of-a-kind, hands-on learning experience. Open 365 days per year, students comprise a large portion of the rehabilitative operations at the Center. This presentation aims to show you both behind the scenes rehabilitation of wildlife, and ‘up close and personal’ natural history of our strikingly beautiful animal ambassadors.
