At the Yukon Wildlife Preserve, north of Whitehorse, they offer tours of their 750-acre wildlife park. Mountain goats, woodland caribou, moose, elk, wood bison, mule deer and mountain sheep roam in their natural habitats. We saw Cleo, a five-day old moose, who had been abanboned by her mother along the highway. That is where the mother birthed her, and then momma moose crossed the highway. There was too much traffic, so she did not get back to bond with her baby. It was hard to believe Cleo could have grown so much in only five days.
