Empire Wildlife Conservation Park (EWCP) will be WNY’s premiere wildlife experience. This exciting 33-acre park will be designed to offer guests the opportunity to view and engage with nature and wildlife from around the world and inspire generations of visitors to love and conserve wildlife and wild places. As a local cultural and regional attraction, EWCP will provide a new educational and recreational component to our area. It will serve as a local economic base, employ a diverse and multi-skilled workforce, and will prove to be a popular visitor attraction to the Greater Buffalo Niagara Region. By its completion (over six phases), the facility will exhibit species representing six continents, many of which are rescued and/or endangered species, acquired from other accredited zoological institutions and organizations.
