The Nature Center

The Hueston Woods State Park Nature Center is open 7 days a week all year round.  General park info and history is available inside as well as several live native reptile species.  The outdoor exhibits include a male Bobcat named Eli, who was declawed by his original owner.  The Nature Center also does Raptor Rehabilitation and accepts on average 50 injured Birds of Prey a year with a nearly 50% success rate of release.  The permanent residents include a Bald Eagle, a Golden Eagle, rough Legged Hawk, several Redtailed Hawks, Great Horned Owls, Barred Owls, and Turkey Vultures.

Please help us welcome our new cougar cub!!

The Nature Center offers Naturalist led programs year round.
