The Weather is Frightful – Native Wildlife

Visit the Lakeside Nature Center for a native wildlife event focusing on the different methods wildlife uses to survive frightful weather. Some animals deal with extreme temperatures by using migration, others will use hibernation or brumation and some will simply endure the temperatures.
