Note that these are the number of sightings, not the number of individual animals. The numbers are lower this year simply because we did not have the same amount of Tundra Buggies out or guests viewing.
Below is our list of top wildlife sightings recorded in 2020 in no particular order. For comparison, check out our 2019 Top Ten List.
