But how can you fit Moose, Lynx, Caribou, Bears and many other popular animals without trekking all over the state? The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center is your place to go. They host all kinds of Alaskan animals ranging from Black Bears to Eagles to Musk Ox.
Located in near the scenic Portage Glacier, just outside of Anchorage this little animal haven puts you up close and personal with animals.
