The BC Wildlife Park is a non-profit organization and registered charity located in Kamloops, British Columbia since 1965.  The BC Wildlife Park is home to nearly 200 animals and 65 different species that are native to British Columbia including cougars, bears, wolves, reptiles, birds of prey, and the only Kermode bear in human care in the world.

Many of the animals at the Park have been rescued or were orphaned and are unable to survive on their own in the wild. The BC Wildlife Park is an accredited facility in Canada, by Canada's Accredited Zoos and Aquariums (CAZA).

In partnership with the Burrowing Owl Conservation Society, The BC Wildlife Park has been working towards saving the burrowing owls from extirpation since 1992. Together we are proud to be the largest and most successful breeders in the world.

The BC Wildlife Park also operates the Fawcett Family Wildlife Health Centre which is dedicated to the rehabilitation of orphaned and injured wildlife. As the only full service wildlife rehabilitation centre in the Southern Interior, our health centre accepts between over 400 animals annually from all over British Columbia.
