The High Desert Museum is offering a variety of programs this summer, and you’ll find awe and wonder around every corner!
MEET THE GRAY FOX
There is a new mammal in the care of the Museum. Have you met the gray fox?
She was found as a pup in southwestern Oregon, malnourished and with a serious hip injury. She was also wearing a collar. It was determined she is habituated to humans, meaning she doesn’t have adequate fear of humans to be able to survive in the wild.
She is now thriving in her new home at the Museum. She’s already proving to be a wonderful ambassador for her species!

Summer is in full swing and there’s loads of fun to be had at the 1904 Miller Family Ranch. From watering the garden to playing hoops and graces, there are many ways to step back in time and discover the high desert over 100 years ago.
Mrs. Miller and her daughter-in-law, Miss Emily, stand ready to greet you!
