We spent a few hours there. The area was much larger than I had expected. But it is a nice walk and it was a beautiful, crystal clear winter's day. You get a map at the office and off you go to see the Musk Oxen, Lynx and all the others. We saw quite few animals in the wild during...

The preserve has native species of the north. You wont see them anywhere else. so go see it. and it might be very cold so go prepared.
Visiting the Wildlife Preserve in winter is an amazing experience. The animals have their winter coats and the scenery is stunning. You can take a leisurely stroll, catch the bus or even cross country ski.
Most of us will never see an Arctic Fox in its white coat or the amazing musk oxen so this is the place for these...

It's often possible to get up close to some of the local animals, despite the huge areas they are all housed in. The preserve is very well kept and the animals are mostly rescues or born there. Your entrance fee helps with costs. There is a bus tour or it can be done on foot. Really worth it!
This attraction is reasonably priced for a day out. It's great to see the wildlife of the Yukon on display in naturalistic habitats.
This attraction is open year round, so you can walk, or in winter ski or snowshoe around. For a couple of extra dollars you can also take the bus tour. Look-outs over the enclosures have been set...

If you have nothing else to do... then go visit them... or if you're traveling with children, then its a MUST. Nice views, the animals seem well cared. beautifull scenery.
Unlike a zoo, these animals are allowed to roam in large (fenced in) areas. If you are lucky (as we were), they will be visible from the viewing platforms along the figure 8 road that goes through the park. The guided bus tour was worth the money!
We walked a figure eight trail of approximately three miles. It was an easy walk with wild animals to view along the way, almost as a bonus even though the animals are the main attraction. It was March and the weather was about what you would expect. We were lucky enought to have a little dusting of snow at the...

A nice very open facility on what was once a ranch that raised game animals. The enclosures are large fields. A bus takes you on a central road, I'd guess about 2 or 3 miles in circumference, and stops every 500 yards or so, and you get out to take pictures. Great to see musk ox, bison, and elk in...
