Wildlife Learning Center
In the San Fernando Valley of California, the Wildlife Learning Center (WLC) is a zoological park where visitors may enjoy and learn about animals from all over the world, that is one of the Best Things To Do With Kids In L.A. The WLC was established to educate the general people about the life sciences, conservation, and the environment. More than 100 displaced, rescued, and zoo-born wild animals from around 50 different species call this lush, natural setting home, and WLC is committed to giving them lifelong care. The mission is to provide public education that encourages people to protect wildlife, the environment, and the life sciences, as well as to provide sanctuary and loving care for animals in need.
You may witness everything from monkeys to foxes as you stroll across the lush grounds of this Sylmar suburb refuge, as well as field trips and birthday celebrations. Request a near encounter with a porcupine, a Siberian lynx, a two-toed sloth, or an absurdly cute fennec fox for up-close photo opportunities. In the gift shop, be sure to say hello to Zeus, the blind owl with starry eyes.
