Big Cats, long in the tooth

We visited and enjoyed the animals on an evening feeding tour. Most are older animals who were victims of poor human choices. The cages appeared very clean. The tour itself was stretched a little too long, especially for the young kids in the group (and...More

Caring keepers and great property

You can tell the keepers really care about the animals here. I wish I would have brought more money to tip them. Admission is way cheaper than it should be for this place. Well cared for animals here.

What’s NOT to like?

Mostly older exotic cats, emus, turtles, iguanas, lemurs and an obstinate pig in fairly spacious enclosures. Owner’s wife conducted the tour was intimately familiar with everything. Only cautions were the high weeds, and fire anthills. Boots would have been more appropriate footwear.

Incredible place to visit for a couple hours at dinner time.

This place is off S.R. 41 and, without GPS, might be a little difficult to find, HOWEVER it is well worth finding it! We booked a tour during the animals' dinner time and will definitely recommend it to others, with or without children. The owner...More

I'm in a wheelchair as I can't walk distances, however, I can walk with my cane to get close to the cages - will this work for me? Thanks!

Just let us know when you book, and we would be happy to drive you around for the tour in our John Deere gator.

When they say "sanctuary," do they mean that these animals have been rescued from illegal poaching and captivity oeprations and cannot be rehabilitated, or is it more like a zoo?

Our animals come to us from a variety of different situations! The one thing that they all have in common is that they are in need of a home. We try to provide them the best permanent home possible.
