We Conserve Wildlife
Since 1975, Northwest Trek Wildlife Park has been the best place to see native Northwest wildlife. But we're also dedicated to conserving that wildlife for our planet. We've been recognized for over 40 years of high standards by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums. And we protect wild habitats with earth-friendly practices.
