The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, a non-profit organization, is located on 160 acres (0.65 km²) at the southern edge of Turnagain Arm and the entrance to Portage Valley in the Municipality of Anchorage. It is a refuge for orphaned or injured wildlife such as wood bison, plains bison, brown bear, black bear, moose, elk, musk ox, deer, caribou and an eagle, which are cared for in large habitats.
