National Wildlife Day Celebration

September 4th is National Wildlife Day, a day where we honor conservation efforts and acknowledge all the amazing species that are endangered. Bring the family out to the ranch to meet five different species here that are endangered to critically endangered. Get up close and personal to build a greater appreciation for the animals with hands-on encounters.

Come for a tour to visit monkeys, lemurs, foxes, otters, snakes, wildcats, and bearcats. Share your love of wildlife with fun facts about exotic animals, photo backdrop to snap a cute picture and fun with the community.

Purchase our National Wildlife Day tee featuring the endangered animals you'll get a chance to meet here at the ranch. All proceeds from the t-shirt sales go directly back to the endangered animals by helping with their diet and enrichment plans. Purchase a National Wildlife Day tee with your ticket order at a discount!

Only a limited number of tickets available to keep our tours manageable so everyone gets the best experience and individual interaction. Children under the age of 3 do not need a ticket but are welcome to join the family.
