We would like to say thank you to all the mothers for everything they do with free admission to all mothers on Mother’s Day!

Bring mom for a visit on May 14th, 2023. Come explore the sanctuary and share this special day with Alaska’s wildlife! Tour the center by riding your bike, walking, or driving the 1.5 mile loop around our 200 acres of spacious habitats where animals feel at home and display their natural wild behavior as education ambassadors for their species. It is common for visitors to see brown bears swimming, moose strutting, wood bison roaming, muskox playing, wolves posing, porcupines climbing, and more!

Mother’s will also enjoy a 10% DISCOUNT on Be Wild Gift Shop purchases on May 14th.
