Wildlife viewing in Oregon has become recognized as one of the major reasons that people visit the state. The opportunities cover all kinds of wildlife, from large animals like elk and whales, to tiny crabs scuttling around in tidepools. Many areas are now designated specifically for wildlife viewing.
