Wildlife West Nature Park General Admission

Visiting New Mexico’s Wildlife West Nature Park is an excellent way to see native species up close without compromising your safety (or theirs). The park is currently home to 27 different species, and is open to the public every day year round, with extended hours during the summer months. And with its convenient location (just 20 minutes east of Albuquerque), the park is easily accessible.

Along with the wildlife exhibits and spectacular habitats, visitors also have the opportunity to engage with the wildlife through educational presentations and events throughout the year. Once you’ve explored the park and met the animals, kids love running, jumping and leaping through theKid's Imagination Trail, and adults love reading through the animal’s stories. It’s truly a must-visit destination for animal-lovers of all ages.

The 122-acre park provides a glimpse into the wild side of New Mexico for locals and visitors alike, but it’s so much more than an interactive zoo. This is where animals who have been in accidents (or rescued from an inhumane environment) find their forever homes when they are no longer able to live independently in the wild. Black bears, turkey vultures, and cougars alike find shelter in custom-built habitats and are able to live out the rest of their lives with professional caregiving and plenty of love.
