THE ANIMAL

Meet Priya: the bearcat on the move

Priya is the newest member of the Wild Wonders bearcat family — outgoing, curious and lively. The walk is an enrichment opportunity for her; guests accompany her and her keeper as she explores scents and sights around the facility.

THE MEAL

Light brunch with keeper commentary

A light brunch is provided during the experience while the keeper discusses the bearcat’s rainforest habitat and natural history, giving context to the walk and the species’ needs.

BEHIND THE SCENES

Backstage access to animal ambassadors

The experience includes a behind-the-scenes tour where guests meet and interact with additional ambassadors that live at Wild Wonders, expanding the encounter beyond the bearcat walk.

What the day feels like

How the morning unfolds

The program begins as you join Priya and her keeper for a measured walk around the facility — an intentional enrichment for the animal — followed by a keeper-led light brunch where you learn about bearcats and their rainforest origins, and concludes with a behind-the-scenes meeting with other resident ambassadors.
