The bears are really cool to see up close and watch them interact. The wolves could use a much bigger pen. The educators are volunteers with good intentions.

This is only a small centre which doesn't take long to go round but it is really interesting if you visit at feeding time. The keepers don't just give the animals the food they hide it so that the animals have to use their skills to find it. When we were there some children were being 'keepers for a day'... More

We really enjoyed our visit here. We went in the morning and were able to sign up our kids for their kids club. We came back that evening and our kids had a class about grizzly bears and got to go into the bear enclosure and place food for the bears before they let the bears out for the evening.... More

The wolves sleep all day and they only let out one or two bears at a time but at least they are close up. The exhibits were okay but not great and the ranger presentation was terrible. He held up pictures from afar with no slide show of any kind and his presentation skills were terrible. All in all, this... More

There is a reason why people put a small zoo just outside the national park - it is for the disappointed kids and kids-in-heart, who did not manage to see any bear in the park! Yes, you can see grizzly bears and wolfs here, in close distance. (My kids did just that!)

The GWDC is the BEST deal anywhere! The admission fees are more than reasonable, and the staff is knowledgeable and ready to share with any and all visitors. The animals are well-kept, and nothing short of AMAZING! While we were there, the wolves decided to "serenade" us; there is nothing like being 10 feet away from a wolf pack communicating... More
