- Opportunities for additional programming.
Payment for this type of experience is due upon arrival, with the option to prepay, and cannot be divided between group members.

Meet an Adirondack animal ambassador and experience them up close while engaging in observation and conversations to uncover the hidden stories of our wild neighbors.
There are public animal encounters included in your admission at 11 am and 2 pm, but we do offer the option of a private encounter just for your group! These programs last about 30-45 minutes.
