Wildlife Outreach Programs
Our educational ambassador animals can be a fantastic tool to teach students about wildlife and nature. We are now offering virtual, interactive lessons as well as in-person visits.
You can choose from a variety of wildlife programs with our Animal Ambassadors. Our programs cover a range of topics and we present to audiences of all ages.
- Variety of animals including salamander, frogs, toad, turtles, snakes, a rabbit and a porcupine. Types of animals cannot be guaranteed in order for us to be flexible enough to meet our animals’ needs.
- Within 90 miles of Duluth, St. Cloud, Twin Cities
- Abundant props and audience participation add to the fun of learning
- Presented by our skilled wildlife education staff
- Competitively priced, no weekend surcharges.
