Journey into the animal kingdom and uncover the secrets of Earth’s most precious wildlife, with a special focus on endangered species. Campers will explore ecosystems from around the world—from the Everglades and the Amazon rainforest to the Himalayas—and connect them to habitats closer to home, including the Great Salt Lake, the Wasatch Mountains, and Utah’s desert canyons. Through hands-on investigations, museum exhibits, and creative research projects, campers will study animal adaptations, food webs, and the delicate balance that keeps ecosystems thriving. Ready to join the mission to protect our planet and become a conservation hero?

This camp takes place entirely at NHMU, Monday-Thursday. No camp on Friday.
