January’s Self-led Virtual Trail Challenge: The Great Mammal Mystery

A mystery Pennsylvania mammal is making tracks at Washington Crossing Historic Park (PA). Your family’s mission, should you choose to accept it, is to identify it!

Each month, we’ll post two different trail adventures: one for young families and another for families seeking a more difficult challenge. On these adventures, you’ll find a series of five different clues at the park. Each clue contains a keyword that will help you figure out the mystery mammal.

To get started, download and print a copy of this clue card. It contains a park map, more instructions, and a place to list the keywords you find.

Once you’ve uncovered all the keywords and have identified the mystery mammal, email park naturalist Matt Truesdale at mtruesdale@pa.gov to confirm your answer!
