Squam Lakes Natural Science Center is a fun and enlightening place for everyone to enjoy. Here at the Science Center, we house and exhibit many different wild animals, including river otters, mountain lions, bobcats, deer, bears, birds, foxes, and skunks. The wild animals at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center are ambassadors of their species, here for the purpose of educating our visitors about New Hampshire's natural world. Most are orphaned, injured, or otherwise unable to survive in the wild. Observing these animals up-close, together with experiencing our hands-on exhibits, offers visitors the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of our native wildlife and appreciation of the natural world.

Took the lake cruise with Bev, who was an absolute delight and gem to the science center. He excitedly shared history and local wisdom of the film, On Golden Pond, as well as local wildlife. We saw loons, chicks, cormorants, eagles and even an eaglet! He made our day so fun. Was just us and another couple on a chilly morning. Delightful!
