Bearizona Drive-Thru Wildlife Park is an animal sanctuary in the amazing Ponderosa pine forests of northern Arizona, just 60 miles (96 km) from Grand Canyon National Park. Bearizona is the only park of its kind in the southwest United States and is the perfect location for your next family adventure!

In the comfort of your own vehicle, drive through Bearizona to see North American animals in a wilderness environment. Catch views of American burros (a type of donkey), majestic brown bison weighing up to 2,000 pounds (900 kg), big horn sheep, Dall sheep (native to Alaska and Canada), stealthy Alaskan tundra wolves, rare white buffalo and, of course, the gorgeous black bears. The drive-thru portion of the park is approximately 2 miles (3 km) long, takes approximately 45 minutes and includes the use of a GPS device that will guide you through the route.

After your drive, get out of your car and visit Fort Bearizona, a walk-through area where you can stroll along the winding paths and watch the antics of the park’s baby animals and smaller species. Fort Bearizona is also home to the amazing High Country Raptors free-flight show, where you’ll learn about birds of prey and see them fly directly over you!

Bearizona promotes conservation and preservation through educational encounters with North American wildlife.
