About

For those seeking a more intimate and personalized visit, our VIP Experience offers a deeper connection to the rescued animals of Animal Tracks Sanctuary. We will take you to five different continents as well as a behind the scenes look at the animals that aren't shown to the general public.

Designed for small groups of 1–4 people (up to 3 groups per session), this experience allows you to witness the incredible resilience of our animal ambassadors while learning about their stories and the importance of conservation.

Unlike a petting zoo, this is an immersive, education-focused encounter where you will observe a variety of species in a natural, controlled setting. Our knowledgeable guides will tailor the experience to align with your specific animal interests, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how we care for these animals and the challenges they face due to human impact.

What to Expect:

During your visit, you’ll have the opportunity to: • Witness animals engaging in enrichment activities designed to stimulate their natural behaviors. • Observe our wolf hybrids playing together and experience their unique social dynamics. • Learn about the specialized care we provide to our primates, kangaroos, and other incredible species from around the world. • Gain insight into the critical role each species plays in its ecosystem and how human intervention affects wildlife.

While there is limited contact with our domesticated animals, you will experience the exotics up close in a way that fosters respect, admiration, and a deeper appreciation for their well-being.

Why Visit? Your participation directly supports our mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and provide lifelong sanctuary for animals impacted by the illegal pet trade. Through this experience, you’ll not only learn about these incredible creatures but also leave inspired along with the knowledge to respect and advocate for a wilder world.

Logistics: • Capacity: 1–4 people per group, up to 3 groups per session. • Recommended Age: Ideally suited for adults and children 5 and older. • Preparation: Arrive 10–15 minutes early to ensure a smooth start.
