ASHEVILLE WNC NATURE CENTER is a Native Wildlife Natural Habitat that is a fun, educational adventure for kids of all ages! There are over 60 species of animals including cougars, bobcats, wolves, foxes, bears, deer, raccoons, snakes, snapping turtles, otters, birds, fish and other many others native to our Appalachian mountain region.
