My mom, son, and I really enjoyed the tour. (Our guide) was very kind and accommodating. Her knowledge of the animals was incredibly impressive and she was an excellent tour guide. Also getting to feed the caribou grapes and the moose orange peels was a once in a lifetime experience we will never forget.
Have a look at the inner–workings of the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center! Enjoy a tour where your personal guide will walk you through the Center and offer history and personal stories of our resident animals. You’ll have a chance to be up close and personal with a porcupine and have the chance to feed one additional animal. Due to popular demand, we are continuing our tours through the fall, winter and spring! Call or email today to book a Walk on the Wild Side Tour with our expert staff. Tours will only be available during AWCC’s hours of operation (please refer to Hours of Operation page).

This program allows visitors to get up close and personal with our bull moose! Visitors are able to feed the moose browse right out of their hand while being guided by a member of our animal care staff. During this exciting 30 minutes, visitors will also learn about our resident moose; diet, behavior, wild counterparts and have the chance to ask questions. Arrive early to purchase your ticket before space runs out!
The moose were so gentle and sweet. The staff was also knowledgeable, and we wish we lived closer to do it again!
