March WILDness at Heckscher WILD! Tuesdays-Fridays, Noon-4 pm, Saturdays & Sundays, 10 am-4 pm. Note: Heckscher WILD! is closed on Mondays during this period of time.
Cast your vote in our 3rd annual bracket challenge in Heckscher WILD! All of our animals are awesome, but we know everyone has favorites. Is yours Hot Dog the Tree Frog, Wallace the Red-Footed Tortoise, Thor the Savannah Monitor, or another? Each week will feature a group of animals that will compete for your votes to move on in our challenge. Then, the top two vote getters will battle it out to be the March WILDness winner during our Take-a-Hike Week programs. Stop by weekday afternoons in March (Tues-Fri) at 3 pm to meet one of the animals from our weekly group! Voting will also be available during our Maple Sugar Festival Weekend, March 3-4.
