Once Endangered: The Return of Wolves & Peregrine Falcons at Stamford Museum and Nature Center June 23 - September 3
It is a rare and wonderful event when an endangered species is brought back from the edge of extinction.
This dynamic exhibition uses mounted specimens, objects, interactives, video and graphics to study the behavior, near demise, and the return of the remarkable Peregrine Falcon and the misunderstood Grey & Red Wolves.
Visitors will learn about the long history the peregrine falcon has shared with humans. Dioramas help visitors understand the terrible toll pesticides had on peregrine populations.
Today, peregrines have recolonized their historic cliff nest sites, and have become dramatic members of our urban communities.
SM&NC Members: Free | Non-Members: Included with gate admission.
Galleries are open Monday-Saturday, 9am-5pm; Sunday 11am-5pm.
