Discover, Recover and Coexist

Phase 1 Now Open

Discover local wildlife and how we are all connected to nature and each other by the choices we make every day. The Living Northwest Trail highlights conservation successes and challenges up ahead as we all work together to create a sustainable future for people and animals in the Northwest.

The new exhibit reimagines the former Northern Trail, where the zoo’s beloved gray wolves, river otters, grizzly bear and other local wildlife can inspire a community movement for Northwest conservation.

This exhibit is made possible with dedicated support from private funders and major maintenance funding from the voter-approved Seattle Park District.

 

 

 

Land Acknowledgment

These are the lands of the Tribal signatories of the Treaty of Point Elliott (1855), whose stewardship for the waters, plants, land and animal relatives in the Northwest has continued since time immemorial. Woodland Park Zoo acknowledges this stewardship, the sovereign rights of the Tribal signatories, and our responsibility to join with these Tribes to inspire and advance the restoration of relationships between humans and the living world around us.
