New! Bird inventory of Carlington Woods available to download as a checklist on your next hike. We know it’s far from complete, so keep those observations coming!
Carlington Park has a diverse resident population of animals, birds, insects, and reptiles, as well as other animals who commute to the Park for food.
Listed below are just some of the animal species that can be found in Carlington Park and the Clyde Woods portion of the EPA. We’ll keep adding to it, so if there’s an animal – bird, mammal, insect, reptile, amphibian – that should be on the list, let us know.
