When you visit LARPD Open Spaces like Sycamore Grove Park and Holdener Park, you are visiting the homes of an amazing diversity of wildlife. Some of the wildlife you may encounter, however, pose a threat to people if not given appropriate respect and space. Still, they remain an important part of the local ecosystem and are deserving of protection. We aim to educate park visitors on these plants and animals to better support coexistence between people and wildlife in our Open Space parks.
