The behind the scenes tour was amazing! The staff is so knowledgeable about each of the exotic and domestic residents' rescue stories, personalities, eating habits, health and social habits. I have a new appreciation for the big cats, wolves and other fortunate animals that call the sanctuary home. Most had been in unhealthy situations before being brought to this wonderful place where their health and well-being is a priority for the team that owns and operates the sanctuary. I left with such an appreciation for why exotics should be left in their original habitats and for the people who unselfishly care for those like the ones we met here to make each day the best day for each of them.
