Part of our Premium Education Experiences at our new Headquarters and Nature Shop in downtown Custer.
Want to know what coyote howls, yips, and barks are saying? And that's just the start of what you will learn. Cougars routinely swim from 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) up to 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) through cold ocean waters to reach islands where the deer are easier to hunt. Pronghorn can run 55 mph with more stamina than any other animal alive. They picked up that speed running from an American cheetah that went extinct a long time ago, and never lost it.
Join us for a 1.5 hour look into the hidden lives of the mammals sharing the Black Hills and other parts of North America with us. We'll explore what these animals are actually doing out there, backed by slides and video, and you'll leave with a few stories you didn't have before.
Whether you grew up here or you're visiting for the first time, The Secret Life of Mammals will leave you looking at the wildlife around you quite differently.
$10 per person or $35 for a family of four.
