SUMMARY:Turtle Bioartifacts
DESCRIPTION:Turtle Bioartifacts\nAnd What They Can Teach Us \n\nExamine turtle bioartifacts and learn about turtle biology and ecology! \n\n\n\n\n\nDive into turtle science 101 with local herpetologist and environmental educator George L. Heinrich! This hands-on workshop will explore turtle bioartifacts (natural history objects) commonly found during nature forays. Numerous specimens of shells and skulls will allow us to learn about turtle anatomy and species diversity. We will also examine a variety of eggs and dissect gopher tortoise scat. Participants may also get to observe some of the Preserve’s resident gopher tortoises. \nThis workshop will take place outdoors\, under the covered pavilion adjacent to the Cultural and Natural History Center. This program is recommended for ages 16+ and youth should be accompanied by an adult. \nThis program is sponsored by the Friends of Weedon Island. Our Friends support the Weedon Island Preserve through education\, preservation and protection of its habitats\, ecology\, and cultural history.

SUMMARY:The Magic of Mushrooms
DESCRIPTION:Mushroom Biology and Ecology\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMention mushrooms and most people think of three things: eating them\, DYING from eating them and/or their use in recreational drug use. Let’s put those topics aside and explore fun facts about these fascinating and ecologically important organisms! Recommended for adults and youth over 12. Note: this class will NOT address edible wild mushrooms\, BUT participants can purchase their own mini mushroom farm to watch the magic happen at home\, thanks to the Friends of Brooker Creek Preserve! \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Figuring Out Fins
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk with Sensing Nature’s ecologist Brian Lane as we dive into Florida’s saltwater environment and explore what fishes are found in Florida. We’ll learn about fish taxonomy and why this is important; we’ll learn about fish adaptations and how their adaptations help them survive\, and finally\, we’ll take a closer look at some of our wonderful saltwater fishes that call Florida home! \nRegister today

SUMMARY:Killer Snails
DESCRIPTION:“Killer Snails: From beach to lab bench to bedside”\nwith Dr. Mandë Holford\nVenoms — molecules that evolved as toxins — have the power to transform lives. In this think + drink / science\, we trace the scientific path from mollusks to medicine\, examining how venom evolved over time in some predatory snails\, and how we can use this evolutionary knowledge as a roadmap for discovering and characterizing new compounds with therapeutic potential for treating pain and cancer. \nDr. Mandë Holford is an associate professor in Chemistry at Hunter College and CUNY-Graduate Center\, with scientific appointments at The American Museum of Natural History and Weill Cornell Medicine. She examines venoms and venomous animals as agents of change and innovation in evolution\, and in manipulating cellular physiology in pain and cancer. She is also cofounder of Killer Snails\, LLC\, an award winning EdTech company that uses tabletop\, digital\, and XR games about extreme creatures in nature as a conduit to advance scientific learning in K-12 classrooms. \n\nWhere: On Zoom\nCost: $3 for members of the Discovery Society; $5 for all others.\n\nRegister now to receive the Zoom access code

SUMMARY:Skins and Skulls
DESCRIPTION:Real animal skins and skulls (from animals that died in the wild or were accidentally killed on our roadways) are used to show how scientists study these “artifacts” to learn more about the living animal.
