Presentations and Programs

All of our programs focus on education first, with the use of fun stories, anecdotes, and amazing experiences as entertainment. Everyone will absolutely come away with new knowledge and a heart full of love for the amazing animal ambassadors.
Our facility is NOT open to the public. 
We are working on building a Visitor Center, but until it's complete we are able to share the amazing animals in three ways:
1. Off-site public presentations to audiences throughout western Montana. We come to you!
2. Our Meadow Pavilion, located in Potomac. MT. Let us gather together among the grass and wildflowers.
3. Virtual Connections for those out of state. You get to visit the animals in their homes!

Special Animal Requests
Some of our animals require extra care and specific wildlife educators alongside them to travel. When you request these amazing animals, we ask for an additional fee to cover the extra time and care this requires. $50

Animals In Focus

Add an additional 30 minutes onto any program! During this extra time, the entire audience is invited to interact one-on-one with certain animals they met during the presentation. We have animals that thrive on attention, enjoy being touched, and/or would happily take a treat from any willing participant. Touching, holding, smelling, and or feed the animals who are comfortable with the interaction, brings a whole extra level to the experience. This is perfect for birthday parties, small private groups, and classrooms. $80
