Step into the untamed beauty of the North at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve—where adventure, discovery, and conservation come together in an unforgettable experience. Spanning over 700 acres of stunning northern landscape, the Preserve is home to some of Canada’s most iconic wildlife, including iconic moose, ancient muskoxen, and majestic lynx. It is more than just a place. It’s a purpose that cultivates reciprocal, respectful relationships between people and the natural world. And it’s a refuge where nature offers solace.
Discover, Learn, and Connect
The Yukon is a land of extremes, where endless summer days contrast with long winter nights. These dramatic conditions have shaped the wildlife in fascinating ways, from the thick, insulating fur of the caribou to the incredible migratory journeys of birds and mammals alike.
The Preserve invites you to deepen your understanding of these adaptations and your connections to the natural world through guided tours and immersive educational programs. Our knowledgeable staff shares fascinating stories about the survival strategies of northern wildlife and the critical roles these animals play in maintaining ecological balance. This is a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of this fragile world and gain insights into how we can better protect it.
Your Visit Supports Conservation
The Yukon Wildlife Preserve isn’t just about seeing wildlife—it’s about deepening our connections and being intentional in how we live alongside wildlife. Our wildlife rehabilitation program provides a second chance to injured, sick, and orphaned animals, helping them heal and return to the wild whenever possible.

The Yukon Wildlife Preserve is committed to nurturing a deep connection between people and the natural world, inspiring visitors to take action in their own lives.
Recognizing the unique challenges northern wildlife face, we can all play a role in protecting these species and their habitats. Whether it’s reducing our footprint, championing conservation efforts, or simply spreading stories and awareness, every small step counts.
