From the largest land animal in North America to some of the highest bat species diversity in the United States, Grand Canyon National Park is home to a larger wildlife population than many people think. Most visitors to the park see mule deer, elk, and squirrels, but many of Grand Canyon's wild animals are secretive or nocturnal and move around unnoticed.
Brady Dunne, Wildlife Biologist at Grand Canyon National Park will give an overview of the variety of wildlife found within Grand Canyon, as well as projects that the park’s wildlife team is working on to protect and monitor the thousands of species of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and fish that call Grand Canyon home. Learn more about how the National Park Service ensures the safety and diversity of Grand Canyon's wildlife through innovative programs and projects.
