Charles Lance with "campers" and Charlie Skunk at Critter Camp held at The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. Holding a camp at your facility? Want an animal/wildlife theme? Contact us. We provide live animals, education, crafts, and snacks for all participants.WE BRING OUR PROGRAMS TO YOU!
Critter Tales Inc. is a non profit (501c3) outreach organization
in Warr Acres, Oklahoma (near N.W. OKC) designed to promote awareness of wildlife and conservation through exciting, educational programs. We will travel to any facility in the State of Oklahoma.
Live animals, bio-facts, books, posters, puppets, songs, and crafts provide effective hands on learning experiences.
In a time that is more and more removed from nature we have to make an extra effort to ensure our children's connection to the natural world. Making these connections at an early age helps develop a life long passion for all life on earth._______________________________________
