National Eagle and Wildlife Repository
Friday, April 29, 2016, 9 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Free, Limited to 20, Reservations: piombi...@gmail.com
Leader: Carol McCasland
This facility is located on the Rocky Mountain Arsenal and administered
by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Department. It is dedicated to accounting
for all confiscated or otherwise forfeited wildlife items. It is here
that parts and feathers of dead Bald and Golden Eagles, after a careful
accounting process, can be distributed to Native American Tribes. You
will learn about laws that protect wildlife and the challenges of
enforcing wildlife regulations from illegal trade and possession.
We will start with a tour of this complex, and afterwards move onto a
new display about Black-footed Ferrets that have recently been
reintroduced to the Arsenal. After a brown bag lunch, participants will
go on the Arsenal wildlife drive where Bison are almost certain. Meet at
the northeast corner of the East Boulder Recreation Center parking lot
to car pool at 9 a.m.
