Theme: There are many stories in nature waiting to be discovered and with careful observation, you can find them.
Jim Arnosky’s beautifully illustrated books provide the inspiration for LeVar to learn about wildlife watching. They team up for a day of exploration and playing detective.
Viewers learn that teeth marks on twigs are a good sign that beavers are nearby. If they look closely on tree trunks, they might see tiny porcupine claw marks. Get a close look at raccoon paw prints and learn how to tell if they were drinking from the brook or just passing by.
