    Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center

    Admission included

    Driving the Seward Highway south of Anchorage, you will spot the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center before you fully expect it, a broad sanctuary tucked between spruce forest and tidewater. Brown bears wade through meadow grass, wood bison graze in open pastures, and bald eagles perch at eye level. The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center gives every visitor a rare, unhurried look at animals that define the Alaskan wilderness.
