What visitors say
Love the animals! Bald Eagles, cougars, elk, otters, bears. Inside stuff for kids to play and explore. Small exhibit and theater also . Wilderness guides were very knowledgeable!
It was really awesome that they do talks on all the animals often and I all the cages it tells you what time the next talk is the animals look well taken care of and nice and chunky LOL but playful. Have a nice little museum in there…
The view from the bear exhibit is very pretty but the bear only is out and viewable at certain times when the staff go to feed.
