DISCOVERY WILDLIFE PARK

Discovery Wildlife Park provides permanent homes for orphans that cannot be released
back into the wild, as well as exotic pets that have been kept illegally. These animals are
in crisis! Many would have been euthanized if we could not give them a home.
We believe that conservation begins with educating people. By providing daily animal
presentations, we give visitors an animal experience that helps them develop a passion
for conservation. We offer photos with our bears, walks with our wolves and behind the
scenes tours with the big cats.
Extend your animal experience with us this year by camping in our new campground!
Located around our fully stocked trout pond, each site offers 30 or 50 amp power – we
have showers and washrooms available too! If you don’t have an RV, we do rent RVs
and cabins, too. Evening animal encounters may be booked in advance; check out our
website for more information.
Don’t forget our annual ZooFest and Public Market on Aug 4, 2018. Free kids bounce
rides and face-painting. Our market has lots to offer all ages!
