The park is home to a variety of wildlife species such as deer, coyote, weasels, fish, amphibians, and hundreds of bird species that visit Fish Creek at different times of year or call the park home year‐round.
Please Respect Wildlife
Wildlife can be unpredictable and will defend themselves if they feel threatened. When you see wild animals, give them plenty of space, and always keep your dog on a leash in the park.
