***If your student is outside the recommended age, please message me so I can allow for an exception to be made*** In this amazing and fun class we will learn about the dangerous and venomous animals of North America. This is one of my very favorite classes to teach, as I am a huge animal lover! We will talk about each of the most common dangerous and venomous animals, and what to do if you encounter one. Through lecture, Q&A, along with pictures and videos, I will teach your student what to do if they ever encounter a dangerous animal and how to survive. Be prepared to answer questions! (no pressure though) I also encourage questions! I love when students ask questions. I will also talk a little bit about where in North America they are located, and how unlikely they are to ever even get attacked or bitten. *If your student has already taken the Dangerous and Venomous animals portion of my ongoing "Urban and Wilderness Survival" class, they would not need to take this class unless they want a refresher. It is the same instruction given in my ongoing "Urban and Wilderness Survival Class." What animals will be discussed: -Sharks -Jelly Fish -Sting Rays -Wolves/Dogs -Alligators -Bears -Snakes -Scorpions -Spiders -Mountain Lions -And if time permits a few others. *Unless there is an emergency I do not mind teaching a class with only 1 student, so no need to worry about that. **If you are not 100% satisfied with what your student learned with me, I will be more than happy to give you a full refund. ***If your student is outside of the age range, and you have any questions as to if it would be a good fit for them, send me a message and we can work something out. **** If you have never signed up for an Outschool class, send me a message and I might be able to save you up to $20 off of your first class.
