Looking for a thoughtful, unique, and beneficial gift for an animal lover? The Adopt an Animal Program was introduced as a way for people to financially contribute to the ongoing enrichment and care of an animal of their choosing. Your adoption is a great way to show your support for wildlife conservation and be a special part of one of our animals’ lives!
Adopt an Animal Today!
The BC Wildlife Park receives very limited funding - you can help us give Wild Lives a second chance!
The BC Wildlife Park, Fawcett Family Wildlife Health Centre, and the Burrowing Owl Breeding Program are both funded by gate admissions and from generous donors.
100% of your donation is used to assist us with the ongoing costs associated with the caring of some of British Columbia's iconic wildlife.

The BC Wildlife Park has high standards to ensure the food we are feeding to our animals is safe, and processed in a manner fit for consumption. The wildlife in our care have their diets monitored closely, and therefore, we are only able to accept specific items. Learn more
Volunteers in all departments have helped make the BC Wildlife Park a community success. Our volunteers assist our team with everything from habitat cleaning and maintenance, diet preparation, educational engagement with guests, and everything in between!
In 2019 the BC Wildlife Park had an incredible volunteer foundation with 96 active volunteers logging an impressive 4,226 hours! Without these individuals our team would have many more challenges to overcome due to our limited resources.
