Join us in a hands-on, interactive learning mission to find, rescue, rehabilitate, and release animals in need!

Five children are sitting inside a vehicle, smiling and gathered around a gray dummy or model. They appear to be participating in a hands-on activity or demonstration, with some kids touching or holding the model.

Each year, thousands of protected, threatened, or endangered species along the Texas coast become ill or injured. The Texas State Aquarium’s Wildlife Rescue Program has helped many stranded marine mammals, sea turtles, raptors, and shorebirds after they are injured in the wild. Now your students can join us in a hands-on, interactive learning mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and release our local wildlife. During our Wildlife Rescue on the Road program, students will experience what it’s like as a member of our rescue team as the strive to save animals in need!

Four students in a science classroom observe as one student holds up a black object. On the table are two model turtles and papers. The classroom has lab tables, stools, and educational posters on the walls.
Three kids stand near an emergency vehicle, holding a stretcher with a large stuffed shark toy strapped in. One adult is partially visible, giving instructions. The scene appears to be an outdoor educational event.
A group of students sits around a table observing a plush pelican toy. One student holds a paper with printed text, while others watch attentively and listen, showing curiosity and engagement in the classroom activity.
