  • Wild Bear Nature Center 20 Lakeview Drive Nederland, CO, 80466 United States (map)

ABOUT

What if I told you there used to be 60 million Bison in North America?! Join us as we uncover art and explore the history surrounding the American Bison from Indigenous stories to European hunting, and finally modern day conservation success stories. We will delve into the Bison’s important relationship with the earth, humans, and its role in food webs. Discover the difference between the Bison and the Buffalo. Don’t miss this exciting day with a chance to catch a live glimpse of one of the Bison’s distant relatives right here in Nederland!

ABOUT NATURE ADVENTURE DAYS

TURN A DAY OFF INTO A DAY OUT!

During days off from school, there is nothing better than hitting the local trails to continue the fun and learning in the great outdoors with Wild Bear! Wild Bear offers several specialty outdoor education programs throughout the year when schools have holidays and breaks.

At Wild Bear, children enjoy a full day of outdoor studies at Mud Lake and the surrounding areas of Nederland. Wild Bear incorporates science, ecology, arts, writing, survival skills, and more into our programming to inspire a love of nature and encourage children’s natural curiosity.

Each full day program and age group will focus on a specific theme and align with their grade level studies. Wild Bear brings the learning of all subjects into the outdoors of our beautiful Nederland area!
