Why not donate your Christmas tree to AWCC? They&#8217;re like giant, fluffy toys for our resident animals!<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Animals like Pip the rescued moose love to kick, play with, and nibble on Christmas trees that supporters donate to the center. Trees provide a great source of enrichment for a wide variety of animals here at AWCC. Elk love to charge them, muskox love to headbutt them, and reindeer love to play with them!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please note that Christmas trees must be all-natural, untreated, and be sure all decorations and tinsel are removed.<\/strong> You can drop trees off any time from 10AM-3PM on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday this winter. Upon arrival at the ticket booth, let the agent know that you have a tree for donation and they will direct you to the drop-off location at the sanctuary. Alternatively, if you need to arrange an alternative drop off time, email <a href=\"mailto:info@alaskawildlife.org\">info@alaskawildlife.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thank you for your support!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-45622\" src=\"https:\/\/alaskawildlife.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/jamie-kelly-pip-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"301\" height=\"376\" \/><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Reindeer Love Christmas Trees!\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JgpPs_vaTVg?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wondering what to do with your Christmas tree now that the holidays are over?
