I love the fact that the great cats get a second lease on life when circuses, zoos and ordinary people don't want or can't maintain them. To hear the heartbreaking stories of abuse and neglect almost brings u to tears. This is a great place to learn about the proper way to care for these great animals. Keep in mind, tho, that this is NOT a zoo and they don't have the double fences. Children under five have to be held and all have to maintain an arms length away from the fence. No touching of the animals or u will be asked to leave. Great experience for our 14 year old, too.
