Guided Excursion: Our Animal Neighbours

Mammal or bird? Amphibian or reptile? Insect or arachnid? These questions can be hard to answer. They’re all animals, but how do you tell the difference between them? What kind of habitat do they seek out? What do they eat? Accompanied by an educator from Les Amis de la montagne, the group will explore Mount Royal and delve into the fascinating world of animals. Through fun activities and games, this discovery walk will enable the students to find the answers to these questions.
