Big cat sanctuary with mostly lions, tigers and bears (oh my), also wolves, lynx, bobcats, and other animals once kept as pets or abused in backyard circuses. Now happy and free at the massive sanctuary in their own fenced territories. Stay safe up on the boardwalk high above them, and bring the zoom lens on your camera. See baby tigers and often some unique critters that had no where else to go after being rescued.
