Action Wildlife

Thank You! Your rating has been saved.

Action Wildlife Foundation, Inc. offers residents of CT, MA and NY the unusual opportunity of observing and learning about animals from North America, Africa, India, New Zealand, Asia and the Artic. Not only is a visit to AW an education in animal life and habitats, it is also a fun activity for children to touch and feed the smaller animals in our petting zoo. Older children and young adults are sure to be intrigued by the museum gallery.

Visit AW and experience the beauty and strength occurring naturally in the wild. Located in Goshen, Connecticut, Action Wildlife Foundation sits upon the Northwest Hills of Litchfield County, surrounded by glorious fields of green.

Museum/Exploration Center

Visit our new Museum and Exploration center, which opened in the spring of 2008. The museum showcases taxidermy animals from throughout the world displayed in their natural settings, including two natural waterfalls!! Check out our "hands on" educational center for children. In back of the museum, there is a large covered pavilion with plenty of picnic tables for lunches and snacks. Don't forget to visit our fully stocked gift shop, featuring unique wildlife merchandise for all ages. Don't miss this incredible center, there is nothing like it in the area.
