Global Wildlife Center

Global Wildlife Center is a safari park where thousands of animals from around the world live in open spaces that mimic their natural homes. Visitors travel through the preserve in guided wagons and watch the animals roaming freely across the landscape.

The center opened in 1991 as a private wildlife preserve focused on conservation and animal care. Management of the facility passed to new leadership, who continued its mission of protecting endangered species.

The center functions as an educational institution where visitors learn about wildlife conservation through direct interaction with endangered and threatened species.

Visitors can feed and touch many animals during guided wagon tours, getting up close to the wildlife. Plan your visit for a day with good weather and plenty of daylight for the best viewing experience.

The center houses animals from multiple continents, including African giraffes and North American bisons, living together in the same reserve. This unusual mix lets visitors see geographically different species in one place during their visit.
