Springtime Frog Walk at Bengel Wildlife Center

Join us for an evening filled with croaks, trills, and splashes from some of our favorite frog friends. The evening will kickoff with a brief introduction to frog calls followed by a hike to various habitats including forests, vernal ponds and wetlands. The hike will include multiple stations spread over approximately 1 mile of uneven terrain.

Speakers will include:

• Alexa Warwick, Assistant Professor, MSU Department of Fisheries and Wildlife 
• Paige Filice, Natural Resources Educator, MSU Extension
• Drew Monks, Director of Wildlife Programs, Bengel Wildlife Center

Frogs like it wet, so come prepared with appropriate, closed-toed footwear (waterproof shoes or boots are ideal). They also like to sing at night, so headlamps and/or flashlights may be useful. While all ages are welcome, this program will require walking off-trail and on old footpaths. Please wear weather-appropriate clothing. Food will not be provided.

Note: Space is limited and this event is typically at capacity. Register early to guarantee your spot.
