Education Beyond the Center
Pine View has been serving as an educational resource to members of the
Wisconsin community for nearly 20 years.
Featuring live birds and animals, programs are presented to classrooms, clubs and a variety of civic
organizations with a message about the importance of co-existing with the
earth's wild creatures. These presentations also teach individuals about wildlife behavior and natural history.
The birds and animals that accompany Pine View staff members and
volunteers to the educational programs are non-releasable due to a variety of
permanent injuries. Program birds include barred, great horned, screech
and saw-whet owls, red-tailed hawks, a kestrel, a turkey vulture and a
crow. In addition, an opossum, iguana, turtle and snake are sometimes
featured. Please contact Pine View by phone or by e-mail to inquire about hosting an educational wildlife presentation.
Task Force Development
Some people consider the Coyote a "nuisance animal," perpetuating a growing fad of eradication of this and other species.
The Coyote is just one example of people neglecting to find a way to co-exist with animals. Pine View is a resource of ideas, applications and references to help you humanely co-exist with our fellow
species. If you need assistance developing a task force in your area, or want to organize support for a threatened species, please e-mail us
with your questions and needs. We'll get back to you with tools!
