Extirpated Animals
2026-02-27 18:00 - 19:00 UTC | Oakwoods Nature Preserve, Discovery Center
Many people know about the endangered and threatened species of Ohio wildlife, but Ohio’s extirpated species are less well known. When a species is extirpated, it has been eliminated from a geographic region but can still be found in other places outside of that region. Learn about Ohio’s extirpated wildlife, why they are no longer in the state, where in North America these creatures can still be found, and the species that have returned to Ohio through wildlife conservation practices.

Nest Hike
2026-02-28 10:00 - 11:00 | Litzenberg Memorial Woods, Gatehouse, 6100 US 224 West, Findlay, 45840
When the trees have lost their leaves, it can be easier to see nests. During this guided hike, we will look for bird nests, squirrel dreys, and nests inside tree cavities. We may see red squirrels, White-breasted Nuthatches, and Pileated Woodpeckers. Dress appropriately for the weather, including layered clothing, hats, and gloves.
