Book club for wildlife

Education

Join our Book Club!

'Book Club for Wildlife' meets on the second Wednesday of even-numbered months at 6PM at the Baldwin Wildlife Center (9777 M Street, Omaha). 

At Book Club for Wildlife, readers who enjoy learning about wildlife (or wildlife enthusiasts wanting to read more!) get together to have stimulating discussions over books that make us think critically about animals and humans and how we can better learn to co-exist. We also dive into the intricate ecology of species, how we can support them, and how their histories intertwine with our communities. And there's snacks!

Attendance to every meeting is not mandatory, we encourage participants to drop in when they are available.
