About the Program
Fishbeck Grand Rapids is located in Grand Rapids, Michigan, approximately 160 miles west of Detroit. The site is located in an area that has experienced dramatic urbanization during recent decades, resulting in marked declines in available habitat for wildlife species across all taxa. To help address this issue, the team has recently begun two ecologically focused projects.

Practices and Impacts

- In order to provide educational opportunities, the team provides on-site tours for local youth where they learn about the habitat needs of reptiles and amphibians on site.
