Tracks and signs in the snow and dirt reveal the mysterious lives of fox, coyote, mink, and many other animals that we don’t often spot in the woods, even though they live here. Join us to discover the who, what, when, where and why of animal tracking through an extensive, interactive indoor setup. Then we'll put our newfound detective skills to the test as we head outside to find out what the animals of Kensington Metropark have been up to!
