This small zoo is funded by donations. The animals are those that are native to this area. I saw Ceyote, Bobcats, Deer, Beaver, Woodchuck, Owls, Hawks and an Eagle.
Wild Wonders Wildlife Park is open to the public all year round!
Open to the public between 9:00 to 4:00 seven days a week.

"Since the days of our humble beginnings, the Howell Conference & Nature Center's Wildlife Rehabilitation program has had a mission: to help the injured and orphaned creatures with which we share our planet, and to educate people to become better stewards of our natural world.
Though the Nature Center itself has changed dramatically, this mission has not. There is only one way to increase both awareness and caring in the next generations. It is through education.
Our permanent wildlife have become living ambassadors to educate and inspire that spirit to care. It is time to improve not only the living conditions of our wild friends here at the Nature Center, but to do so in a manner that will teach as well. Our dream has come true as we have built a new wildlife facility that blends natural habitat exhibits into the beauty of our fields and forest. We believe that the birds and animals will feel free to be wild and in doing so, educate our visitors. We call it Wild Wonders. As dedicated supporters and friends of wildlife, we invite you to share in this dream come true.
Wild Wonders is filled with beautiful habitat structures. Many have murals, waterfalls, ponds and live trees. The Bobcat has a large enclosure with lots of trees, a rock den, and even a high platform so he can feel on top of the world and keep a good look out. The Turkey Vulture/Red Tail Hawk habitat has a most beautiful mural that blends the interior into a far away horizon. The Arctic Aviary also has a beautiful tundra mural, glistening ponds and low perches as in the Arctic, there are no trees. The Fox Habitat is amazing. This spacious enclosure allows the frisky fellows to race around and entertain visitors. Lots of live trees, a waterfall and an underground den complete this habitat. These are just a few highlights of what is a truly wonderful Wildlife Park. Come by and see for yourself and don't forget to bring your camera.
We are excited to introduce to you, the "Wild Wonders Wildlife Park"!The Wild Wonders Trail has several habitat structures grouped into pods, with each species being situated into their natural habitat. Now in the final phases of construction, only two habitats, the White-tailed Deer and Sandhill Crane, are left to be sponsored."
