Alaska ZooDescriptionIf you've missed seeing Arctic wildlife on your Alaskan adventure, you'll find it here. Come to the Alaska Zoo and see moose, caribou, sheep, wolves, musk oxen, mountain goats and several different types of bears, including polar bear. Some non-Alaskan species such as elephants, bactrian camels and even a Siberian tiger are also housed in the zoo. The major attractions of the Alaska Zoo are Oreo, a brown bear, and Ahpun, a polar bear. They were orphaned as cubs and grew up together at the zoo. In the summer, 2-hour naturalist tours take place every day at 2:30 p.m. A snack bar serves basic meals and there is a large gift shop.
