Mountain View Wildlife Conservation Centre

2010 - News and Info

July 10th, 2010

The Visitor Centre is now open for Daily Guided Tours & Presentations-10.00am & 1.00pm.

Call to reserve seats on one of our Daily Tours, Family & Group Tours, or a Birthday party for this Summer 2010. This year, we are focusing on "Biodiversity" in BC, Canada and around the world, especially focusing on our Canadian "Red-listed" wildlife species that are facing extinction, including our BC Northern Spotted Owls, Oregon Spotted Frogs, and the Vancouver Island Marmots.

Mountain View has been successfully operating these critical breeding and recovery programs for many years, and has received Conservation awards for our Owl and Marmot programs. Our educational tours include up to date information about conservation of the environment, habitat conservation, and healthy ecosystems, here in BC and Canada.

Our Guided Tours are approximately 2-hours long, consisting of an audio/visual presentation in our Visitor Centre, followed by a visit to our 300+Acre Conservation Program areas by foot and by tram. You are welcome to bring your cameras.

We also have an interesting Wildlife Art & Gifts Shop for you to visit and purchase souvenirs for your family and friends.

Call 604-882-9313 today to reserve your guided tour today.

Become a Mountain View Member and book your visit

Mountain View offers individual, family, associate, and corporate memberships. Each individual and family membership includes a 2 - 2½ hour visit to the Centre which must be reserved in advance. Your visit will be as part of a group, which will be led by knowledgeable staff and volunteers. Our first priority is the animals in our care so we cannot offer general admission access to the centre. Access is by reservations made by members, community and professional groups, and schools. The public may call in and book a reserved tour that includes membership. Seating is limited.

You will discover that our guided tours are a unique experience that is not like a zoo or any other types of animal park. We are a conservation centre and our programs save wildlife from extinction.

Corporate and Associate Members receive special benefits.
