Wildlife should be in the Wild

Education

We believe the ideal home for wildlife is in the wild.
We believe it is critical to conserve their native habitats.
We believe wild animals should not be kept as pets.
We believe captive breeding should ONLY be done in accordance with Species Survival plans.
We believe all wild animals, both captive and in their native habitats, deserve to be treated with respect and not exploited for entertainment and commercial purposes.

Field Trips

Virtual Field Trips

Education is key to our mission. We enjoy teaching "kids" of all ages! Our field trips, both virtual and onsite, are ideal for groups of kids. Our "Kid for a Day" Adult Camp provides a unique learning opportunity while allowing adults to channel their inner child. While all of these opportunities are structured differently, in the end we want everyone to walk away knowing more about the animals we care for and what they can do to help protect them.
