Fossil Rim Wildlife Center is dedicated to the conservation of species in peril. We conduct scientific research, train future professionals, and educate the public on the management of natural resources and wildlife. Through these activities, we provide diverse, compelling learning experiences that inspire positive change in the way people think, feel and act towards nature.

Fossil Rim Wildlife Center is made up of 1,800-acres of protected Texas hillcountry. The preserve holds a 9.5 mile scenic drive where you can interact with over 50 exotic and endangered species roaming within open pastures. Enjoy private and public guided tours, overnight lodging, educational programs and more. As breeding center dedicated to the recovery of species in the wild, Fossil Rim invites you to join them in their efforts. Located in Glen Rose, Texas, we are just 52 miles SW of Fort Worth and well worth a visit.
