“Bioquest Series” Friday Camps (8:30am-3:30pm)
Bioquest 2: Native Mammal Conservation

Calling All Wildlife Detectives! 

Ever wondered what it takes to protect animals whose populations are shrinking? Join us for a 5-session wildlife adventure as we study species like: Prairie Dogs, Beavers, and Black-footed Ferrets!

Campers will discover why these animals are so important, investigate what’s causing their populations to decline, and uncover the creative ways biologists and conservationists are working to protect them.

Using the Future Problem Solvers 6-step process, campers will become conservation problem-solvers, digging into real-world challenges, analyzing the decline of native mammal species, exploring successful conservation efforts, and brainstorming solutions of their own!

Explore. Investigate. Problem-solve. Protect!

• They will learn:
  • • Outdoor skills
    • Forge connections with the natural world
    • Discover true adventure on the banks of the Arkansas at our River Campus!
