Calling all night owls, brave explorers, and curious adventurers! When the sun goes down, a whole new world comes alive at Eco Adventures. Who is lurking in the shadows? Who is howling at the moon, soaring silently through the night, or slithering through the garden? Join us for Creatures of the Night, a family adventure where we’ll venture into the mysterious darkness to discover the fascinating creatures that come alive after sunset. Experience the sights and sounds of the nighttime jungle as we encounter a spectacular “lightning and thunderstorm” and gaze upon the glow of the Northern Lights before heading into the foggy darkness to meet some of our nocturnal residents up close! Test your courage with our Fear Factor Challenge, where you may encounter glowing scorpions, creepy-crawly tarantulas, and perhaps even have the chance to sample some edible bugs! Meet our Screech Owl and discover how these incredible hunters find their prey in complete darkness, then watch as our hedgehogs forage for worms under the cover of night. From croaking frogs and slithering snakes to lurking alligators and mysterious creatures hiding in the shadows, there’s no telling what you might encounter once the sun goes down. The sunset is just the beginning… and the night belongs to the creatures!
