Due to significant flooding and impassable roads in our region from Tropical Storm Helene, the WNC Nature Center is temporarily CLOSED.

All of our animals are safe and accounted for, and there is minimal damage to the habitats. However, Swannanoa River Road and the main bridge to the Nature Center were washed away, and it will take time to reopen. We will undoubtedly need your support as we rebuild. 

Donations can be made at www.wildwnc.org/donate.

Description

Grab a snack while an otter patiently await their fishy lunch. Share some leafy greens with a panda munching her bamboo. Or chill with the bear as you grab a cold drink. All of our photo magnets are printed in the USA with the animal and photographer’s names on the back.
