North
The Yukon Wildlife Preserve is a unique wildlife
viewing property featuring 12 species of northern
Canadian mammals in their natural environment.
With over 700 acres with various natural habitats,
the Yukon Wildlife Preserve offers unrivaled
wildlife viewing and photo opportunities.
Convenient visitor parking with space for
commercial buses and recreational vehicles,
is located at the entrance of the property. On
arrival, enter the log reception building, where
friendly wildlife interpreters will orientate you. You
will have the option to take a regularly scheduled
guided bus tour. If you prefer to go at your own
pace, you can explore on foot, taking advantage
of interpretive panels along the way.
Animal feeding stations are centrally located
in each enclosure. Animals gather here around
feeding times, increasing their visibility to visitors.
Your tour may or may not coincide with the
feeding schedules.
Remarkably varied landscapes like low-lying flat
lands, rolling hills, wetlands and steep rock cliffs
make for accurate presentation of Northern
Canadian wildlife. While exploring the Yukon
Wildlife Preserve you may see Woodland Caribou,
Canada Lynx, Elk, Mountain Goats, Alaska Yukon
Moose, Mule Deer, Muskoxen, Wood Bison,
Arctic Foxes, and two varieties of Thinhorn Sheep
(Dall’s Sheep and Stone Sheep). Please admire,
but do not touch or feed the wildlife. A full-time
veterinarian and animal care staff are dedicated to
the health and well-being of the animals!
Dogs and other pets are NOT permitted on
the Yukon Wildlife Preserve grounds. This is a
measure to control the spread of disease to the
wildlife. For the health of the wildlife and safety
of your pets, we request that visitors please leave
them at home.
