Mead Wildlife Center

George W. Mead Wildlife Area     

 Ms. Grossbier’s class went to the George W. Mead Wildlife Area.  We went birding all over the area. They have different places in the area, like the wetland, grassland, and forest. If you go inside you could learn about the loggers and farmers. You can also learn about foxes, bears, birds, and turkeys and why they take the Bear, Fox, Coyotes, and Badger skin. You can feel the furs too. When we looked for birds in the forest we walked on the boardwalk. There are bike trail in the woods also for people to come and bike while looking at nature. The kids split into groups of 4 or 5 and went with an adult chaperone and went out to looking for birds.

 The Mead Wildlife Area is a state wildlife area in Milladore, Wisconsin. The Mead Wildlife Area has over 33,000 acres. They say “It is a neat place to visit, and a great place to come, it is a tremendous place to get away and and observe the wonders that nature offers all of us” At the George W. Mead Wildlife Area you can, hunt, watch and photograph the wildlife. You can also go birding, hike, bike, and train your dog! They also provide great educational opportunities for students.  Also they do field trips and they will do fun activities for you and you children or students.

 The students in Ms. Grossbier’s class really enjoyed it. They liked the experience to look for birds with their friends. Some groups found many birds, and some didn’t find many, but the kids still found it interesting to look for some in every different habitat. The kids liked using the binoculars too, which put a little more fun into it!!
