  • Living with Urban Wildlife

    4th Saturday, monthly
    9:30 – 11:00 a.m.

    Rattlers got you rattled? Wondering how to attract birds to your yard without attracting
    snakes and bobcats? Learn how to coexist with wildlife in an urban setting. You will see photographs of common urban wildlife, learn about the behavior of common mammals, birds, reptiles and insects, get tips on how to avoid practices that can attract unwanted wild animals, and learn gardening and landscaping principles to attract and support desired wildlife and discourage unwanted visitors. This presentation is a joint effort of the Arizona Game and Fish Department, Tucson Botanical Gardens and Tucson Audubon Society. No pre-registration required. Free with the price of admission to the Gardens.
