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 25 years of high standards by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums. And we protect wild habitats with earth-friendly practices.

Our male caribou shed his antlers in December, so itโs astounding to see how much his new antlers have already grown! All of our female caribou have dropped their antlers except for one, who has her right antler left. Every year, caribou shed their antlers and regrow a new pair! ๐

It is with a heavy heart we share the sad news about the loss of our beloved Atlas. The nearly two-year-old male moose arrived at Northwest Trek over a year ago after he was orphaned as a calf in Alaska. Atlas passed away from a severe acute hemorrhagic disease. Our head veterinarian completed a comprehensive necropsy (animal autopsy) and results from advanced lab tests are pending. We are devastated by the loss and our thoughts are with all who cared for Atlas. Our two young female moose, Luna and Calli, are being monitored closely by our veterinarians and animal care team.
