Prairie and Mima Mounds Tour
Offered mid-April through late June. Take a stroll through our prairie habitat and discover the natural phenomenon of the Mima Mounds. Learn about native plants and animals of the prairie, Native American uses for prairie plants, and medicinal and edible prairie plants.
Enrichment Tour of Wolf Sanctuary
Would you like to have a closer look at our wolves? Come join us on an enrichment tour to get the up close look you've been waiting for. An enrichment program is a way to keep the wolves stimulated by introducing new items into their environment. An enrichment item can be food, a toy, a scent object - nearly anything! You will be able to watch the wolves play with their jerky, sardines, pizza boxes, or other fun item.
