Talking Talons Youth Leadership

Talking Talons Youth Leadership (TTYL) specializes in connecting youth with the natural world by offering educational programs that give participants an up-close and personal experience with rescued live birds of prey, bats, reptiles and wilderness environments. Students not only learn about the animals and the environmental issues that threaten them, but also how to convey that information others through public speaking and peer leadership training. TTYL's curriculum can be suited to the specific needs of each group with an emphasis on: wildlife bioloty, math, environmental science, forestry, ecology, and art. TTYL programs are suited for the classroom, presentations, conferences, and field trips.
