On Patrol with the 'Geese Police'
Metroparks uses a professional goose control company that uses dogs to disperse the birds, keeping them from concentrating. It's a humane, effective and interesting process.
Thank You to the Metroparks Toledo Foundation and over 750 donors who supported the Village!
Designated Hammocking Sites
Metroparks is a leader in conservation and as such we need to protect the resources we steward. Hammocking is allowed in specific locations that are visually beautiful but ecologically barren. To keep the proper balance between conservation and recreation Metroparks does not allow hammocking on all our property, only in three designated locations and camp sites. While hammocking in approved areas be sure to follow these few rules to help Metroparks prevent harm to trees and prevent the spread of harmful fungi like oak wilt.
