Whose Tracks Are These?

Description

Even if we can't spot them directly, wild animals are active year-round. Play fun tracking games while looking for animal tracks, homes, and other signs of activity at the sanctuary. Learn how to piece together the clues that wildlife leaves behind to uncover their hidden world.

This is a program designed for families with children. Each registration requires at least one adult and one child. This program covers up to 1 mile of gravel-paved or unsurfaced trails containing a mix of flat ground, gradual slopes, and one or two hills. The trail surface contains exposed tree roots and rocks. Recent weather could make the trail muddy, wet, or slippery.
