Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre Video Series Launch

After a year in production, Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre (SPWC) is ready to release a 5-part video series with accompanying lesson plans on species-at-risk in Ontario. The series aims to raise awareness of species disappearing in our community and is a call to action for youth and adults to create a world where these species can thrive here again. “At Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre, we focus on helping individual animals who are sick, injured, or orphaned, typically from human activity”, says SPWC’s Medical Director, Leah Birmingham. To celebrate the series launch, a public release party will take place on Saturday, April 2, 2022 from 1 - 3 PM over Zoom. In addition to showcasing the videos and lesson plans publicly for the first time, community partners will join live on the Zoom call to answer questions and provide updates on the work they are doing to protect species-at-risk in our community. The videos and lessons (designed for Grades 6-8) will be available on the SPWC website after the event. This project was made possible in part by an award from the National Geographic Society's COVID-19 Remote Learning Emergency Fund for Educators and TD Friends of the Environment Foundation.
