Living and recreating in Washington means you may encounter wildlife — from deer and raccoons to bears and cougars. It's up to all of us to help keep wildlife wild!

Join the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and Washington State Parks at 1 p.m. Saturday, June 7, at Ocean City State Park to learn about biology and how you can prevent negative encounters with wildlife. Meet a wildlife conflict specialist and get all your critter questions answered!
