Visit Alaska: Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center

The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center is home to various orphaned and injured animals, such as bears, moose, and muskox. 

Admission is per person, and there are two ways to explore - via car or by foot.

We decided to explore by foot so we could get a closer look at the animals. 




The day started off chilly, but as we walked it warmed up.  
The Conservation Center is somewhat like a zoo, but smaller.  There are some educational displays throughout the center, and several restrooms throughout as well.   For additional fees, you can book tours and encounters that get you even closer to the animals, even feeding some.

There are some pretty spectacular views from the center - we even saw a bald eagle perched on a rock. 


It took us 90 minutes to explore by foot. If you make less stops or drive, you can easily be done in under an hour.
