Exotic Animal Sanctuary

An Exotic Animal Sanctuary is a facility dedicated to caring for wild or unusual animals that are rescued, retired, or cannot be released into the wild. These sanctuaries provide a safe, naturalistic environment where animals like big cats, primates, reptiles, and others can live healthily and with dignity. They focus on rehabilitation, education, and conservation efforts, ensuring the animals' physical and psychological well-being. Unlike zoos, sanctuaries prioritize the animals’ needs over entertainment and do not typically breed or sell animals. Their mission is compassionate care and responsible stewardship of exotic species.
