Wild Wonders: A Close Encounter with Native Animals

Take a look into the lives of animals native to East Tennessee in this interactive tour through our Native Animal Area. You can interact with and learn about species like bobcats, raptors, and red wolves. Our knowledgeable wildlife staff and volunteers lead the program, sharing fascinating details about these animals' habits, habitats, the vital role each species plays in the ecosystem, and the importance of wildlife conservation efforts.

If you haven't already signed it, please read and sign the before attending. Each adult attendee must sign this waiver to participate. A parent or legal guardian must sign a waiver for each child participating. Please provide email addresses for each adult (and parent/legal guardian of children) during sign-up.

As an outdoor facility, our programs and events are almost always dependent on the weather. We are also a force-free facility, so if one of our animal ambassadors isn't interested in participating in a program, we'll respect that and offer our audience a great alternative. We appreciate your understanding if your program changes. In the event of severe weather, programs may have to be cancelled.
