The Lakeside Nature Center is one of Missouri’s most significant wildlife rehabilitation facilities and was established to provide environmentally-focused educational and recreational opportunities for all ages. Located in Swope Park, the Lakeside Nature Center is home to around 75 animals that have been rescued and rehabilitated, including three barred owls, two turkey vultures, two Kestrel falcons, three varieties of hawks and two bald eagles. The Center also hosts summer camps for children at the historic Camp Lake of the Woods facility, which also offers hiking, mountain biking, camping, and cultural events throughout the year. Educational programs held at the center include Camp Fire Heartland Summer Camp, Fantastic Frogs, Radical Reptiles, Feathers, Furs, Scales and Slime, Birds of Prey, Habitat Hikes, and more.
