Maine is one of the best places to be if you love nature, the outdoors and wildlife. In fact, it’s not uncommon to come across a moose, a grouse (be careful, we’ve seen them attack!) or any number of sea creatures depending on where you choose to spend your free time in the outdoors. But, if you want to make a day of it, there’s no better place to visit than this wildlife park in Maine!
The Maine Wildlife Park in Gray offers an opportunity for visitors to learn more about the animals and plants that exist within the state.
Most of the animals here can’t be released back into the wild due to permanent injuries, their land being taken over by humans or because they were born in captivity.
There are tons of volunteers that make this place what it is. Each cares deeply for the land and the animals. This love shines through to all who visit!
Maine Wildlife Park is closed during the colder Maine months, but will open again for 2018 on Saturday, April 14, weather permitting. The park is open daily from 9:30am to 5pm.
The Maine Wildlife Park is located at 56 Game Farm Road in Gray, Maine. You can reach them on (207) 657-4977. Or, visit them online here. Check them out on Facebook to stay up to date on fun events, too!
Another of our favorite experiences to have outside in Maine is at this park. Find yourself there at night and you’ll experience the night sky like never before!
