“Wildlife Animal Rescue”
Conservators' Center is a nonprofit organization that preserves threatened species through educational programs and support worldwide, responsible captive breeding, and rescuing wildlife in need. The three parts of our mission support each other and help secure our reputation as a leading facility for the care of these species. -Educational programs for fellow professionals and the local community. -Responsible captive breeding of selected species. -Rescue and placement of animals in need Have you ever looked a tiger in the eye? Felt the whole-body impact of lions roaring? Watched wolves romp through the woods? These and other once-in-a-lifetime experiences are possible at the Conservators’ Center, a haven for almost 90 wild animals with a focus on education, conservation, and rescue. An "oofing" at the Conservators' Center is an experience you'll have to feel to believe. It's the earth-shaking sound our 20 lions make when they roar to one another. Our guides call to them on every tour, and you may have the opportunity to hear them from just 5 feet away! You'll also get up close and personal with tigers, leopards, wolves, lemurs, binturongs, and other exotic species. We receive no state or federal funding to transport or house rescued animals. Tours, adoptions, memberships, and other donations support our work, so every visit from you helps us help them. Come for a visit today, and awaken your wild side!
