Come and take a closer look at some of Radford's common small mammal inhabitants, with live animals on-hand! We'll talk about their important role in the ecosystem, and ways that biologists catch them. Bring your cameras for close-ups of our native mice and voles. (Hands-on participation is allowed, but not required.)
