Description
Want to learn what it takes to survive in the wild? Each week, explore the sanctuary, look to our local wildlife for inspiration, and complete an outdoor skill challenge such as starting fires with flint and steel, building shelters with twine, and tracking local mammals. Our last session will end with a carefully made campfire and toasted marshmallows!
