Birds of Prey

Through a federal permitting system, the ANSC is privileged to provide homes to injured Central Texas birds for educational purposes. Visitors experience them up-close and learn about these awesome, incredible birds.
Small Wonders

The Small Wonders building design takes you on a journey along a small creek starting at a local backyard and ending with the Texas Hill Country. You will view terrariums, aquariums and other enclosures containing animals that may live in your neighborhood or surrounding counties.
Wildlife Exhibits

The ANSC is home to a variety of live animals. Visitors can learn all about these unusual neighbors living right in their own backyard and surrounding areas. Many of these animals are imprinted on humans as former pets, orphaned or injured and could not survive in the wild. At the ANSC they live out their lives receiving dedicated, daily care from our wildlife keepers.
