What an awesome education center! Because it is a place that seeks to educate the public, you are able to touch bones, antlers, and fur. Lots of Montana fish are present in the tanks. So much to see and do! A brisk walk around the fishing lake was so nice. We did not go with school aged children, but it seemed there was a scavenger hunt available to them.
I don't know why this is marked as a hiking area, it's a visitor center... Amazing exhibits for all ages, loved the fish tanks. There are lots of things you can touch, like bones and antlers, and also more detailed informational reading for adults. Spent a long time looking through the bird field guide that goes along with the pictures.
I took an injured fledgling here and the staff was so kind, helpful and passionate. I brought my young kids with me to drop the bird off and we were there for another hour just looking/playing and learning. (Bonus: they happened to be hosting a bird expo and we got to see some incredible ones up close.) I am so impressed with this organization for their caretaking and conservation efforts.
