For lovers of furry creatures of all kinds, come and explore the menagerie of mammals as we become Mammologists. We will compare and contrast the biology and behavior of Irvine Ranch Natural Landmark’s many fluffy residents – even feeling their fur and studying their bones! We will go on an exploration hike to look for some of our animal friends, their homes and their tracking evidence they leave behind.
