Meet Our Animal Ambassadors

The Ogden Nature Center is home to over 20 Utah-native, non-releasable birds of prey and other animals such as snakes, salamanders, rabbits, and tortoises. These animals have been permanently injured or imprinted, and can no longer survive on their own in the wild. Today they serve as animal ambassadors at the Ogden Nature Center, helping teach our community about wildlife, ecosystems, and the importance of habitat.
