Express Your Love For Our Educational Animals This Week!

 By: Everix Machan, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Writing Intern

As Valentine’s Day draws closer, it’s the perfect time to show your favorite Beaver Creek residents how much you love them! 

From now until Sunday, February 15th, Valentine boxes will be available for all of our scaly, feathered, and amphibian friends in the Wise Nature Center, so feel free to stop in and spend some time drawing pictures or writing notes to drop in the boxes outside their enclosures in Scheels Discovery Room! We know they would especially love to see young explorers take advantage of the holiday by paying them a visit!


While you’re stopping by to leave some wonderful messages, now would be a great time to learn a little bit more about our educational animals with our interpretive displays. If you come during feeding time, you might even be able to sneak a peek of a critter up close and ask a few questions! After all, the best way to show your appreciation for someone is by getting to know them!


You can come visit our animal friends from 9:00am to 4:00pm Mondays through Saturdays, and 12:00pm to 4:00pm on Sundays! They can’t wait to see the beautiful notes and drawings you’ll make for them this week! Keep an eye on our program calendar for upcoming programs with our animals.
