Frozen Footprints Join us, along with Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust, for a winter adventure as we explore the Forest and uncover the hidden signs of wildlife! On this guided walk, you'll learn about the animals that stay active during the colder months and how they survive the winter season. From animal tracks and chewed bark to other subtle signs, our guide will teach you how to spot clues and identify which creatures are still making their mark in the Forest. As we venture through the winter landscape, you’ll discover the fascinating adaptations of winter wildlife –how some animals have evolved to thrive in the cold, while others adapt their behavior to endure harsh conditions. Learn how animals like deer, squirrels, birds and even predators like foxes leave behind traces of their presence, offering a glimpse into their secret lives. Along the way, we'll explore how animals find food, stay warm and navigate through the challenges of winter. You’ll also gain a deeper appreciation for the quiet resilience of nature, as you learn to see beyond the snow-covered trees and discover the vibrant life that continues all around us.
