Adventure Pass Ending in 2025

Due to circumstances outside of our control, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass service will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. We hope to reintroduce the service at a later time, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Event Details

Dr. Paul Brooke, Professor at Grand View University, will present on the Northern Pantanal jaguars. These cats are habituated to humans and spend time near the river's edge for easy observation from boats. Brooke and his coauthor Paul Donahue investigate these amazing animals in terms of their cub raising, hunting, mating and diet. Truly, Brooke and Donahue show us the lives of these amazing animals through photographic evidence and scientific data.

The presentation will run 1 hour and features 48 photographs of prey and jaguars on the hunt as well as mothers teaching cubs how to hunt.
