Wildlife in Winter
Explore how wildlife adapts and survives winter at Prairie Ridge nature preserve.
Ever wondered what animals do to survive the cold months? This guided walk explores how wildlife makes it through winter by examining the strategies birds, insects, and other creatures use to stay alive when food becomes scarce. Your family will trek through the forest, prairie, and around the pond while learning about these fascinating adaptations. You can even document what you discover using the iNaturalist app to contribute to citizen science efforts.
This program welcomes kids ages 8 and up and requires advance registration. The outing runs for two hours, so bring layers and dress for outdoor winter conditions. If you have questions about accessibility or need more details, reach out to the organizer directly before registering.
