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.

Big news in the Free-Roaming Area! 🦌 Five elk calves have joined the herd, and these little ones are already keeping up with the adults as they explore their 435-acre home.
Elk calves rely on their spotted coats for camouflage during their first months of life, helping them stay hidden from predators while they grow stronger. Keep your eyes peeled during your next visit; you might spot one of these newest herd members sticking close to mom as they learn the ropes.
Torrent + Spark = maximum bison calf cuteness. 🦬❤️

River otter sisters Oakley and Blakely are experts at turning every day into an adventure, chasing, splashing, wrestling, and zooming through their habitat together. These playful siblings are always on the move and keeping each other entertained. 💕

When the forecast calls for sunshine, our resident critters know exactly how to chill. 😎 Our pine marten and skunks were treated to some icy enrichment to help beat the heat. Ice enrichment encourages natural exploration, foraging, and problem-solving while giving animals a refreshing way to stay comfortable on warmer days. 🧊
