After a long winter, why do some animals wake up from hibernation earlier than others? Learn some of the benefits to being some of nature’s light sleepers.
Join Julie Travaglini, as she introduces us to animals that sleep lightly or even sleep throughout the whole winter.
Grab a hot drink, get cozy with a blanket, grab your laptop (or smartphone), and join the program via Zoom.
