Review of The Wild Animal Sanctuary

I first went to the Wild Animal Sanctuary a couple...

I first went to the Wild Animal Sanctuary a couple of years ago with a photography club. Most recently, I went there again with my 10 year old niece who spent her entire time in Colorado talking about tigers.

She loved it. Sure we went in the middle of the day and most of the animals were lazing about, hiding from the heat of the mid-day sun.

I was pleasantly surprised to see the air walkway had been added to (a mile of walkway now, two mile round trip) and the animal habitats appear larger for the comfort of the rescued lions and tigers and bears.

As a non-profit all of the animals are rescued from horrible abuse and unfortunately none of them are able to re-entered into the wild. All proceeds are turned back into the sanctuary for care of the animals and facility, unlike zoos which perpetuate the capturing of wild animals for profit.

I highly recommend the WAS for family days, photography excursions or as a place to bring out of towners.
