 Night Tracks is a unique program that gives people the opportunity to become scientists for a night. The program teaches how researchers use current technology and scientific terminology to collect data on wildlife and habitats. Using several tools and techniques, participants will work in 'scientific teams' to illustrate how field biologists conduct their research in various environments. Specifically, the teams will focus their study on the natural history of the gray wolf and other North American species. In the process, participants will have an opportunity to use compasses, maps, radio telemetry equipment and night vision binoculars.
Note: All participants must be at least 6 years old. To register call 216-635-3391 or use the links below.

Winter 2008 Group Registrations*:
*Please note when registering for a group night that "waitlist" does not mean sold out. More than one group may sign up for the program, and our registration staff will need to ensure that similar type groups be paired together for sleeping arrangements. After placing your registration order, you will be notified whether your group will be paired with the group already scheduled to sleep in the Wolf Cabin or whether your group will sleep in Reinberger Education Center.
