Alaska Zoo, Zoo in Anchorage, United States.
The Alaska Zoo contains 80 animals across 23 acres of natural forest terrain, featuring bears, moose, wolves, and other northern species.
The facility began operations in 1969 when a local grocer received an elephant named Annabelle through a newspaper contest promotion.
The zoo conducts educational programs focusing on Arctic and sub-Arctic wildlife conservation while supporting research initiatives for cold-climate species.
The facility welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with pathways through wooded areas providing access to animal habitats.
