Springs Preserve

Jake's cubscout den had a field trip to Springs Preserve. It basically shows you and tells you about all the different animals found here in Las Vegas. It also has the history of Las Vegas with trains and recreations of the land auction. It also has other environmental things to learn about. We all went as a family with Jake and his den and had a fun time.

This is a display that shows how far certain animals can jump.
I love these next action shots of the kids jumping to see which animal they match with.


Brandon riding the desert tortoise.

Obviously a picture under a giant butterfly.

Mammoth.

Brandon and another turtle.



Sitting on a huge snake.



This was the exhibit of the land auction. We got a little silly with the statues but it was fun.

Did you see the flash flood exhibit? I thought it was pretty cool!
