Despite harsh conditions, many creatures are still active during the wintertime, traveling across frozen rivers on the hunt for a meal or seeking refuge in thick woods from winter’s wild weather.  Discover who can be found out and about during these short, dark days, from the sky above to the ground below and everywhere in between.
