Get Immersed in New Mexico’s Native Wildlife with Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado Santa Fe

Experience the native wildlife of New Mexico like never before with Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado and the New Mexico Wildlife Center, the Resort’s 2022 Community Partner, through a summer series of animal encounters free for Resort guests and the Santa Fe community to enjoy.

The New Mexico Wildlife Center is home to a wildlife hospital that cares for as many as 800 injured and orphaned wild animals of more than 120 species every year. The federally- and state-licensed wildlife hospital is staffed with experienced, certified wildlife rehabilitators along with a wildlife veterinarian. The ultimate goal of the New Mexico Wildlife Center is to return these animals back to the wild in New Mexico and to further educate the community about coexisting with wildlife.

Animal Encounters

Starting in May, Resort guests and community are invited to the Terra Courtyard for the unique opportunity gain a deeper understanding of the wildlife that calls New Mexico home and interact with the New Mexico Wildlife Center’s Animal Ambassadors, including Sol the Turkey Vulture, Grubb the Burrowing Owl, Amelia the American Kestrel, Cricket the Swainson’s Hawk, Patches the Western Box Turtle and Sly the Red-Eared Slider.

With 100 percent of the proceeds generated from the encounters being donated back to the center, the Animal Ambassadors will be onsite two Fridays every month from May to August 2022 from 2:30 to 3:30 pm. The dates include:
