Natural Resources Officer Stafford was patrolling in a new law enforcement UTV at Portage Lakes State Park. He spoke with park visitors who were riding their APVs on the frozen lake surface about rules & regulations to help ensure everyone had a safe & fun time out on the ice.

Pups and snow, a perfect combo! 🐾 ❄️ 🛷 Three teams of dog sleds had a fun day at Punderson State Park last week. The park has two trails for dog sledding - the Musher Trail and the Cayuga Trail. We had so much fun watching these Siberian Huskies on the trail! 📷: Alyssa Yaple

Our forestry team spoke @ Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Ohio's Youth Empowerment Institute. Our forestry staff shared career options in forestry & what a typical work day looks like. They took the kids on a hike to discuss tree ID & importance of forest management & health.

We don't mind spending our Groundhog Day at any of these stunning wetlands across the state! Wetlands filter out toxins that affect our water. More restored wetlands result is less phosphorous.

Last week, we discovered the wetland pond at our Headquarters was covered in a fascinating frost called hoarfrost. Hoarfrost forms when water vapor condenses directly into ice, similar to how dew forms during warmer weather. 📸: Adam Lanzillotta

Winter wildlife is quite a treat to see! @OhioDivWildlife staffer recently captured an incredible video of a red fox hunting at Magee Marsh Wildlife Area 🦊 The agile fox finds its prey, leaps into action and then caches the meal for later. Watch it here:
