Endangered Species Awareness

Every year on the third Friday in May, people around the world join together to celebrate, learn about, and take action to protect threatened and endangered species. This program will identify the factors that cause animals to become endangered and learn how you can help them. You will also meet Indigo, a short-eared owl who is an Iowa endangered species.
