My husband and I visited Animal Ed.ventures this past weekend. It was a beautiful day, and we had a blast at the sanctuary. It is very much off the beaten path, and is a hidden gem. The staff was very kind and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. They have kangaroos that are loose, along with peacocks, pigs, dogs and cats. There are many animals in habitats, also. There is a camel, many bird species, reptiles, a monkey, bats...and on and on. What a tranquil place. Loved it.See more..
Took our kids and youth here for a trip. It was really cool to see a bunch of different animals and getting to pet animals that you normally do not get to do. My only complaint was that there was a lot of land and I feel we just didn’t get to see all the animals that they had. Overall a pretty cool place to take your kids and youth to if you love animals.See more..

Had a really nice tour at the two x two petting zoo. My granddaughter, Callie, is eight years old and she especially enjoyed it. We fed many animals, and all went well except for an alpaca spit on her. Something she'll be able to talk about. I mean, not everyone can say that. Especially in our home town. Haha. She also got to go on a short pony ride. Other than that, she truly enjoyed it, as did I.See more..
