Come learn about forensics with animal bones!

Join us and become a forensic investigator! Using skulls, teeth, nasal cavities, and brain size, participants will be able to figure out species, habitat, and life cycle of all sorts of Maryland wildlife.

Forensics is a special name for the analysis of evidence using science. You'll be able to become a forensic expert looking at remains of wild animals to determine how they fit into our local ecosystem. The different types of skulls and teeth can show animal adaptations to different habitats, and looking at these in more depth can show a lot about how a specific animal lived its life.

This educational program is perfect for forensic investigators from expert to beginner!

Registration is required. Recommended for ages 4 and up.

If you have questions, please contact the La Plata Branch at 301-934-9001 or email laplataref@ccplonline.org.
