Reviews of Animal Adventures Family Zoo & Rescue Center (Zoo)

Jess Teal

We just went here today with my family. I had gone previously but for everyone else it was a first. We can't say enough great things about this place. It was my husband and I, my sister, her husband, her 2 year old and my parents. From ages 2, 30s and 60's we all had an enjoyable afternoon. We saw the 1 pm show with John, I believe and he was so knowledgeable. Sean was also there and kept inviting us to try different things like having a chinchilla on your head or hold a toucan. All staff we encounter were happy to tell us a little about all of the animal that we saw. I really want to go back to a do a private tour but this place is great. Also my nephew didn't stop talking about the baby goats or the chinchilla on his head for the whole car ride home. He also loved getting to go in the bunny enclosure and petting them and the pig. Highly recommended for all ages.

Nick Probolus

Very nice little place. They have the appearance of a shelter for animals first, and a business second. They seem to really care about the animals. You walk through more then half of their exhibits before you even find where to pay them. All staff members are friendly, and all are very well informed. Parking is limited.

Yahaira Malave

This place was awesome. Nice arrangements of animals. I highly recommend a guided tour. Super informational and interactive beyond my expectations. This place was so fun. Don't hesitate to stop by and make memories.

Joy Mirrione

It took my father here for the Extreme After Hours tour! It was a great way for the two of us to spend time together with some amazing animals. Our tour guide was Zen and she was engaging, knowledgeable and it's clear she loves her job! I didn't know such a cool place existed so close to me. Check it out if you love animals!!

Lil Niko

My mom took me here as a surprise for the end of school, we are both animal lovers and this is the perfect place to go for others just like us. We went on a private tour with a tour guide named Fox (that's actually his name!) The staff are amazing, they are very funny and humorous. You even get to see unique animals that we don't normally see in MA. Very amazing place and I hope to come again sometime!

Howie Belsky

Jonathon gave us a fabulous tour. His knowledge of all the animals was a great learning experience. I never thought I'd ever pat a skunk or hold an armadillo. We had a wonderful visit. Looking forward to going again.

Allison Maniates

This place was both fun and educational. Our tour guide ,jonathan, was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The animals were well taken care of and there were noticable improvements in their habitats. Got to pet a kangaroo and we even fed a alligator. Would come back, great place. Love the pigs!

Sarah Rydgren

This place is run by caring and knowledgeable staff. These animals are rescues, and a lot of them were rejected by zoos. These animals are not able to be released in the wild and will be well taken care of for the rest of their lives here. We took a behind the scenes tour and got to meet some of these educational ambassadors up close. I learned a lot from the caretakers, especially about the kangaroos and cannot wait to go back. Wear shoes you dont mind getting muddy, as the back area gets a bit muddy in the spring. I loved the porcupine show and watching the big cats be fed. The relationships between these animals and caretakers is very special.

Amanda Cederman

Great place, looks small from outside but it's very cool, lots of animals

A truly amazing experience. We had the extreme tour with Levi and he was incredible. He was so knowledgeable and fun. It is an awesome place to visit, there's so much to learn and so many animals to see. 100% recommend for people of all ages. This is the kind of place that will never get old!

Diana Serebro

Highly recommended place if you love animals:) We took personal tour with children and our guide was very helpful and professional. We interacted with birds and animals and we filled how they were groomed and loved by staff. We spent 3 hours full of fun and I want to visit here more with friends and family. Thank you guys for great work and support animals.

Margaret Bogdan

Awesome place! The staff is all super helpful, and you can interact with animals

Shawn Wildes

Just had the greatest experience ever go see Alex! After hour tours are amazing! Thanks again and good luck on ninja warrior!

Geo Lov

Looking for something to do we took are granddaughter here . That staff were amazing very helpful and knowledgeable.

Tim H

Animals are well cared for. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff!

Giovanni Sanzo

Don't let the exterior, curb appeal, sway you from going in. This place is extremely kid (toddler & teen) friendly. The staff was extremely pleasant, knowledgeable and accommodating. Basic admission allows many hands on experiences with their animals. We did not do the add on animal experiences but were able to watch others enjoy them. 2.5-3 hours was about the limit for our toddlers and they enjoyed every minute of it. Remember this is a rescue facility, not a true for profit zoo. Your admission goes towards caring for the rescued animals.

kyle ogni

Love the hands on stuff staff is wonderful and friendly highly recommend better then a zoo...its worth the hour ride from Rhode Island

Philip Bergquist

We went on the night tour and it was by far the most educational animal experience I've ever had (I've done a few at big zoos.) The amount of animals you interact with, learn about, and see is impressive. It's especially nice to see how much love the employees obviously have for the animals.

Jonathan L.

Their signage could be better, but they have a large and interesting assortment of animals and all the staff we encountered were extremely friendly and knowledgeable.

Nicole Boissonneault

This place is absolutely amazing! The best way to check this place out is the extreme tour! We had such a wonderful time, our oldest 12 loved it as much as our 3 year old and our 10 month old was mesmerized by all the animals! The staff is extremely friendly. Joe our tour guide was wonderful and really did a wonderful job interacting with our kids. We will definitely be back again!

samara orr

The staff had so much knowledge. It was amazing that we could pet the animals and have our own special experience. And not only were the staff incredible, but the animals were so cool!! They got very close to you and most were not afraid of people. I definitely recommend this place because this is one of the coolest places I have ever been to and one of the greatest experiences I have ever had.

Kim Geloran

Some really beautiful animals and Alex did a great job doing the 11oclock show

Joe Dionne

Highly recommend the private tour it was very educational

Valerie and Jace Graham

Fantastic place to take your kids to learn and interact with animals the staff was super friendly and very informative they have a fantastic playground and picnic area. We had Issac he was truly knowledgeable about the animals and very friendly. We will definitely be back!! Thank you!

Anna Petersen

Had a spectacular day. Paid a little extra for a private tour. I highly recommend the tour, you will touch the animals and get to ask any question! It was the best experience.

Stacey McKenna

I love the new mountain lion exhibit! They're adorable. The outside play area is awesome. They have a cool bubble area outside too but some of them didnt work very well.

Howard Yaffe

Very nice experience would come back again

Shirley Esterbrook

Run down and dirty. I would not go back. My heart breaks for these animals

Christopher Uzdanovich

Great time. Shawn was informative and a fun guide. Awesome afternoon spent there on the extreme tour. Please take the time to consider naming your next hedgehog after the greatest hedgehog of all time, Ron Jeremy. @RealRonJeremy

Kyle Kruser

It was a cute experience for my niece, Maddie. It has the interactive feel that a child may want from a petting zoo with certain types of animals, but also had larger animals or more exotic...

Yahaira Malave

This place was awesome. Nice arrangements of animals. I highly recommend a guided tour. Super informational and interactive beyond my expectations. This place was so fun. Don't hesitate to stop by and make memories.

Richard Davidson

This place was great. Many animals to see and pet/hold. Kids tried to catch a bunny.

Zach Hicks

Had no idea what to expect and was pleasantly blown away. Shawn was an awesome tour guide and led us around to an incredibly diverse group of animals. He stopped to talk about each one individually and provided us a detailed, lengthy experience that in my opinion was worth every penny. Girlfriend loved it, friends loved it; a good time was had by all. Definitely do the extreme tour. 10/10 would go back again.

deborah williamson

Zen was an amazing host. My son Zack and I did the zookeeper for a day. We had a great time and it was truly an amazing experience. The staff has all been so nice and friendly!!!

Joy Mirrione

Cieara Donati

I have been to Animal Adventures twice in my life, and both times were absolutely fantastic experiences. I don’t even know where to begin. The staff is SO happy and friendly, you can tell they take great pleasure in what they do. The staff knows each and every personality of every animal in their care, which is very heart warming. You can tell they love what they do, and have close bonds with these animals. The negative reviews on here are BEYOND ignorant, and are written by people who have little to no education on animal husbandry, conservation, or care. I have an 8+ year animal/ wildlife background, and am currently going to school for a masters in Wildlife Conservation and Biology. Animal Adventures not only takes exceptional care of their animals, but they are doing a great service in terms of conservation and the preservation of wildlife. If Animal Adventures did not exist, most of their animals would have been EUTHANIZED. These animals weren’t “stolen from the wild”, they were saved from people who bought them illegally and didn’t want to take care of them anymore, or zoos that couldn’t afford to / didn’t want to take them in. The negative reviews on here are from people who have NO clue how pretty much anything works, and just automatically assume animals in cages = bad. They did not take the time to know that the kangaroos REQUIRE small cages due to anxiety over large spaces, or the fact that most of these animal are let out to excersise when the facility is closed. The negative reviews on here are infuriating, heart breaking, and ignorant to say the least. Bashing a place that does so much GOOD simply over a little misunderstanding of knowledge is absolutely ridiculous. Animal Adventures takes great care of their animals and is a wonderful place. Please, anyone reading this, take the time to EDUCATE yourselves before writing a bad review of a small family zoo that has done nothing but good for wildlife.

AB Beauty

I took my father on a private tour as his Father's Day present. We both had a great time! We learned so much and got to interact with several of the animals. Our tour guide (who's name I'm blanking on) was extremely knowledgeable. It was a really unique experience and something I'd recommend to anyone who likes animals.

renee .t

I was shocked amd saddened to see the miserable conditions that some of the animsls at this place are being kept in.

Gabrielle Poekel

We went on the extreme animal tour. 150$ for two of us-kind of pricey, but our tour guide was great and really tried to make our experience the best it could be. There were so many animals that we were allowed to touch and hold and the staff was super knowledgeable and friendly. We met the owner and he was great! The only issue was that we were 10 minutes late, being unfamiliar with the area and in traffic on a Sunday afternoon. The woman at the cash register was very upset at us about this and reprimanded us. She popped up along our tour a couple times and made digs about how we were late- she also made the employees visibly uncomfortable by yelling at them in front of guests. She was very demeaning and I felt sorry for the kids working there. They all seemed like they were trying really hard! Good place to spend the afternoon

Peter OToole

Fantastic place for families, couples and individuals - I went by myself yesterday thinking I would spend about an hour but ended up spending closer to 4 hours, thoroughly enjoying myself. I absolutely love how close you can get to many of the animals and how friendly the staff are. During one of the shows, people were coming up to take pictures of their friends/family holding a crocodile. One of the staff members noticed I was by myself and offered for me to come up and hold the crocodile while another member of staff took my pictures; there were many such interactions during my time here which made the day extra enjoyable. I will be coming back with friends and family in future.

tim ouellette

Lots of exotic animals great place to bring little kids but don't expect a professional Zoo facility. Appears to be a non-profit run out of a private property or resonance. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Overall most of the animals appeared to be in good health. Only two appeared to be sick. To be clear unaware if the sick animals we're currently being treated. But with staff interaction most likely the animals have been treated. Definitely bring small kids lots of things to do for them great educational experience

Kimberly Jorge

Unique selection of a wide variety of animals. My family and I got a private tour by a very knowledgeable employee and got to pet a bunch of animals. I'd never touched an armadillo before today. My three-year-old loved the playground though I thought it could use some TLC. I also wasn't impressed by the size and quality of some of the animal enclosures. It did seem that the employees loved the animals though.

Mary Chase

We had a lot of fun and the personal tour was great. Would definitely do it again!

Meylin Avelar

This was my third or fourth tour at Animal Adventures. I have been coming here for years. I love what the organization stands for and am always thoroughly impressed with the knowledge base of the employees and just how much they care for these animals. Each time I have done the Extreme tour which is around $75 per person. I find it extremely informative and love the interactions. Although through the years the interactions have become more and more limited, I still think its a great tour. I would strongly recommend it to any animal lover if you're looking for something very unique and fun to do. Very kid friendly and also makes for a great date! In the past I've gotten to bottle feed baby goats, feed the foxes whole eggs, have gone into enclosures with some exotic animals that I would have never been able to do at a zoo, and so much more. Last time I did the tour was 10/26 and our tour guide was Levi. He has been with he organization for quite a few years. He was absolutely amazing. He was so kind to all of the animals and you could tell he really knew his stuff. Would take another tour with him any day!!

Harry Veilleux

Animals: Many, well cared for, interesting Staff: Friendly, always around, ready to answer questions Price: A little high but not too bad Bizarre Creationist Posters: Shocking and dismaying for a place that caters to children

Kitty D

It was so fun! My husband took me here for my birthday because he knows i love animals!! If you want you can do a personal guided tour and pet some awesome animals!! Joel was our guide and he was hella fun and super knowledgeable!

Katie Law

Poor excuse for a rescue. Employees are all kids who don't know any better, but the facilities are sad. The animals show extreme stress. The reptiles and amphibians were kept in the same room with no humidity differences between desert and tropical dwelling animals. Will not ever go back.

George Price

Had a great time taking my grand children.

Cameron Martin

I gest loved all the animals and I got a extreme tor and ever one her was nice and cool animals and they tack good care of them

Todd S

So much fun for adults too! We got to see & pet so many animals. People who work there are great!

Jennifer Kass

We love animal adventures. You get to be up close and personal with animals. The best part too are the workers are super friendly and well educated.

Bowen Supple

So. Much. Fun. Never in my life did I think Kangaroos were hanging out in Bolton MA... Great staff, great animals, fun for a group especially. So awesome to come up close to them, and hold more than half the animals you see. Chinchillas are much softer than I thought... 10/10!!!

Itzamary Caban

We had an amazing time at Animal Adventures! They have animal encounters or daily shows every other hour which gives you the opportunity to ask questions and interact with some of the reptiles or furry friends. I would totally recommend visiting Animal Adventures, it is a great way of learning about different animals and kids get to know what animal rescue is all about. It was a different experience compared to going to the zoo. Definitely #waycoolerthanazoo! We hope to go visit again!

Liz DelSignore

What an awesome place! Really nice people work here and do wonderful things for animals that need care. It was awesome to be able to interact with so many wild animals, and it is very clear that the people who work here really enjoy what they do. The experience exceeded my expectations.

Cathy Munkelwitz

My family gave me the "guided tour" as a birthday present and I was amazed at how dedicated and genuine the owner was. He has these animals best interest at heart and it shows. Very friendly, knowledgeable staff also. All oens immaculate and animals seem content. Owner definitely has a special bond with these animals, it's obvious how they love and trust him. Highly recommend, bring the family. You'll be glad you did.

Michael Auer

Awsome place! Animal Adventures never dissapoints, the last time I went there was for and owl holding class, I really got to hold an adult Eurasian Eagle owl! There is few a place in the world where you get to have an experience like that.

Veronica Sara M. Brak

I highly recommend the private tour. As an experienced animal keeper, I am very impressed with the healthy and clean state the animals are kept. We were lucky enough to have a tour with the herpetologist. The your covers a wide range of very well kept and healthy animals, from birds, mammals, reptiles and arachnids. Absolutely worth it.

Michael Mooney

We Did the extreme tour and had a fantastic time seeing fantastic animals of all kinds. Will be going back for a return visit.

Stephanie Saphan

Awesome staff you guys have! That made it much more of a good experience for my family! Definately would recommend

Brittany Oslund

Myself my fiance and our 2 kids traveled almost 2 hours. The first Impression as you pull up isn't the best. Very small and simple. We paid our fee and the staff who checked us in was great with directing us but forgot our wristbands which we didn't acknowledge at first. First impression was a little sad, a young alligator maybe 3tf in a fish tank in position to turnaround which he couldn't do so easily. We Then went to see the cats. Very small enclosures as well. The goats were fun to pet and feed. Another building with more alligators living like a turtle should. A kangaroo in a small cage and various others........... The interactions were fun but the price I wish I could get a refund. More of a donation place. With the prices the animals should have way more space then they do.. The floppy rabbit out from had a patch of fur missing on his ear with a white either boy fly larva or a maggot.....

Joshua Tilson

Definitely a great place way above expectations, Zen did a great informative show as well!

Sean Donaldson

This place is great. They have several different rooms. One room is more reptile based. They have a huge python and alligators. I witnessed the alligator feeding time..that was something you dont see everyday. They have alot of animals...kookaburras, rats, lizards, crocs, turtles, kangaroos, Bobcats, foxes, lizards, birds, porcupines, monkeys, owls, a bunny petting zoo, and a farm animal petting zoo. Oh yeah...tarantulas as well.. the staff is really friendly ...worth the money I think it came to like 50 bucks for 2 adults and 2 children. Check it out

Jazzmine Ross

I left in tears.. an associate shared with us that many of the animals were “gifts” to the owners wife. When I asked if all of the animals were “rescue” animals he said “no.” In fact this employee told me that one of the kangaroos was taken from their mother from another zoo at night. When I asked about the exercise the kangaroos get he said after hours they let the kangaroos “run in the hallways.” When I saw them they were in a small enclosure, with saw dust on the ground and painted outdoor scenes on the walls. As I walked through the large tortoise was trying to get out of his enclosure that was the size of a bathtub. Enclosures were stacked one on top of another. After doing research I know the most common response is that they meet all regulations... so Animal Adventures save your breath of responding your standard response. What you do is wrong, and in my opinion is ANIMAL ABUSE. No stars is a more accurate rating, unfortunately that’s not an option. * response to the owners comment: I will not take back my rating & I will be more than happy to reach out via email. From what it sounds like I am not far off base with what was reported to me. As it sounds, you lack space for your large tortoise and other animals, not all the animals are rescues, some of your animals were gifts and not rescues etc. As for my knowledge and education on animals or lack there of according to you that’s where your associates/animal experts are able share their knowledge & as predicted because it was less than ideal of your “rescue” center then of coarse it’s your associate that’s wrong. Maybe you should commit to retraining your staff then if they’re sharing such “wrong” information. If they were praising your efforts would this same employee be wrong? Thank you Animal Adventures for showing your true colors.

Harshavardhan Ramanna

A bunch of us went there for a friend's birthday and we had a lot of fun! We went on a private tour and got to interact with a lot of animals we hadn't been in contact/seen before. Ideal to spend 2-3hrs with friends or family. Definitely worth visiting!

Dmitriy Arkannikov

Such an amazing place. Animals are so.loved and cared for here. The guides are very knowledgeable. Must visit with children or without.

William Grant

Awesome place to bring your children Animals are beautiful and very healthy Very awesome place

jessica h

I love this place, its about an hour drive from where I live but its so worth it. I've done classes here and have done encounters with a few of the animals. All the animals are taken care of so well and everyone who works there is so knowledgeable.

Lauren Rosa

Today we had Animal Adventures come to our home for our 5 year old sons birthday. Jonathan was our expert and he was fantastic. Kept all the kids engaged (which is hard when you're dealing with the 5 and under crowd). Brought all the animals we were really excited to see, and was very informative and answered all of the kids questions. I would recommend them if you're looking to have the zoo come to you! The kids were also able to touch some of the animals. My little guy was in heaven! Thank you Jonathan for making my son's party a hit!

Molly Davidson

Amazing space and informative staff. Love how happy the animals are!

Christine Franklin

The staff was exceptionally nice. However the place is ran out of a house the animals cages are ridiculously small and the place is not maintained well. $51 for my family to go and literally walk around the house.

John Liegakos

Lots of animals had fun. Felt bad for most the animals tho. Wasnt very clean animals didnt look happy. Hope my $14 goes to helping the animals an not in someones pocket.

Rae-Anne Munoz

Friendly staff and a fun trip to see animals with young children!

Lauren Middleton

My husband and I came here for our 10th anniversary and we had a blast. Our tour guide was excellent and so knowledgeable! I am glad they are doing such a great job educating the public about wildlife and conservation. I already want to go back tomorrow!

jiani wu

*Way Cooler Than A Farm!* This place looks like a farm on the outside , but once you get in, you enter into a magical space . You can hold baby alligators in your hands, give a wild fox a raw egg, discover that kangaroos actually have very furry and soft furs, you can also climb up stairs to feed some huge alligators, you get started at by some aggressive human predator crocodile; you can also pat porcupines on the chin and give them their favorite treat (apple); you can walk into a garden where turtles just have fun and walk around eating vegetables. Plus you have a wonderful guide Jonathan telling you all the back stories of all the animals you encounter. It is one of the most intimate and engaging experiences you can ever have in your life with wild animals. And you will realize that they are just like us, having interesting stories, hobbies, and need to feel affection. Thank Jonathan our guide for such a great experience! I would come back again, because I am already missing those animals.

Jennifer Markham

Visited over April break...Really great local experience, was surprised at all of the different creatures there, kids got to interact with at least 10 different animals and the staff was great with the kids, playground outside with picnic benches to have lunch...highly recommend it.

Samai Connors

This place is amazing. Staff is super nice and informative! My group had Levi as our tour guide and he was awesome! Definitely will come back.

Karissa Ultrino

Honestly I wasn't sure what to expect when I 1st arrived but I was pleasantly surprised! All of the staff there were super friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. My daughter and I had such a good time and learned alot! It was definitely worth the 45 minute drive. We'll be back again for sure

Keith Burke

The place didnt look like much from the outside but the people that ran it where very friendly and they take great care of the animal they had alot of animals I was very impressed

Lisa Munroe

Do not support this animal environment. This was a sad and painful experience. We witnessed an alligator with it's mouth taped shut so that children may pet it as it postured in fear. A beautiful African Serval enclosed in a small room with a couch, carboard box, and living room chair as surroundings. A caracal cat and lynx in below freezing conditions outside in small enclosures. Kangaroos and wallabies in very small spaces unable to do more than turn around. While this facility works within the confines of the law it is heartbreaking to see these animals living in such poor conditions for the rest of their lives. Instead of going and watching them suffer instead write letters to advocate for policy change such that these animals may be returned to their home environments.

John Halligan

Great place for the kids. The staff is very kind and knowledgeable. The one presentation we got to see was pretty cool. Very interactive and the kids all loved it. The prices were reasonable for the type of operation it is. Perfect place for the kids to have fun and learn things too.

Dom Weaver

Highly recommended. Did the extreme tour and our guide was Joel. He was awesome, very informative about the animals and how they ended up with them. I will 100% be returning and recommending to friends.

Mieke Bloem

As a biologist excited to visit an “education sanctuary” I must urge anyone considering the visit to not do so until they provide adequate enclosures and living conditions. It was obvious that the staff are not trained biologists and the money being made is for profit. I witnessed so much stress behavior but the Monkey enclosure broke my heart! This is a roadway sideshow to make money— please no more excuses of the “cost to feed”or the animal was too “stressed” to be in an adequate enclosure... we all know it’s just to make people feel Better about the poor living conditions these creatures are in. I don’t doubt this started as an endeavor to care for and learn about animals, but it has turned into nightmare conditions. This is a 3 bedroom ranch housing felines, primates, marsupials, arachnids, mammals and reptiles. It’s dirty, cramped and uses animals for gain. I fear many of them have been acquired for business purposes and NOT rescued. Like The owner stated:”they used to have a pet store”. I cannot believe this place is up to code and not in violation of federal law. Please support places like Audubon instead so we can teach our children to respect all creatures instead of using them as toys. This is a case of “love” gone terribly wrong. It’s like a hoard.

The Council

If you want a great animal experience I highly recommend coming down to animal adventures. This place is amazing, great for family and friends. They also do great birthday parties. Can't recommend enough. If your in the area definitely check this place out.

Nancy Havens

This place is simply AMAZING!!! It is not really a zoo but not really a farm, it is a perfect mixture of both. There is something there for both children and adults with everything from ducks and goats to monkeys and kangaroos. There is also a wide variety of reptiles and aquatics. It may seem slightly overpriced when compared to a regular petting zoo but this is their only source of revenue to care for the animals and they are taken very good care of. You can request a private viewing and a very knowledgeable guide will not only teach you just about everything there is to know about the animal but you can touch and interact with many of them. These are animals that were either abused or neglected and have found a sanctuary. This was my first visit and I definitely will be going back soon.

Krystal Krittle

Amazing staff who are very knowledgeable and helpful. They have a wide variety of animals from rats to fennec foxes.

Heather O'brien

Great place for kids and adults alike, not much of a zoo person kind of depressing seeing some animals in small places but the people there are informative and nice

Sarah

Just spent the afternoon here and it was so much fun! My husband and I are not normally one for zoos, but this was an exception. The animals are rescued amd the staff are very knowledgeable. The show was very interactive too. We even got to pet a porcupine :)

charlie shaw

Levi was an awesome guide great place to go its definitely worth the private tour atleast

Collin Glasow

Animal lovers around the world should flock to Animal Adventures. This unassuming-sounding name and facade is home to incredible critters from around the world. Equally impressive are the caring, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic staff who will lead you through the seemingly endless rooms of well-treated animals of all shapes and sizes. Kangaroos, monkeys, lizards, porcupines, laughing coocaburas, you name it! You like animals? Get there.

Brooke

This was the best birthday gift for my 12yr. Old daughter. There zookeeper for a day experience was awesome..

Lauren Doukas

What a great little zoo with super helpful staff! We came during a school vacation day when it was 5 degrees. Even tho we were one of the only people there, they put on a great animal show with a training staff member ( Brianna?). The whole place does feel like you're behind the scenes of a big zoo, and you get quite close to the animals. I have 4 kids between 2-9, and they were all entertained. One of the awesome staff even told us to follow him so we could watch him feed the giant alligators! We're looking forward to visiting in the spring.

Eric Jenkins

The exotic animal tour was a fantastic experience!

Selma .Cherry

A small facility but big on information about the animals they care for

Jennifer Crowley

This is our second visit to Animal Adventures! We loved it so much the first time, we decided to have our sons 3rd birthday party here. Johnathan was our party host and he was absolutely terrific! He and all the other staff members are extremely knowledgeable. The staff make sure all of their critters are well taken care of and are handled safely while allowing the visitors to have as much of a hands on experience as possible. This is a wonderful sanctuary for many animals who have been rescued from bad situations or surrendered by owners who could no longer care for them. I highly recommend you check them out, it is a fun experience for all ages! #waycoolerthanazoo

My grandson absolutely loves this place. We've been there dozens of times and there is a different show each time. Sean was wonderful today, even getting us up close with the coolest Owl....

Jake Lamoureux

Purchased my 8 year old son zookeeper for the day, was a great experience, lots of intimate experiences with animals like hugging kangaroos, singing with a kookaburra, feeding foxes, lynxes, and more.

Nia Lamrock

Drew and Issac are awesome! Their presentations and meet and greets are thorough and they obviously treat the animals well!

I went to this place YEARS ago and left a scathing review because of the animal enclosures, the conditions and the price I paid to see hardly anything more than heart breaking habitats for the majority of animals. I demanded my money back which they refused. But they did give me a laundry list of excuses for the conditions. It is beyond heartbreaking to see that this place is still allowed to operate... UPDATE: I just received an email stating that I left a half anonymous email instead of speaking to someone before I left about my concerns. To clarify: I most certainly did speak to someone before I left AND I most cerainly spoke about my concerns before asking for my money back. I went there as a work trip taking clients of mine to check it out after finding your website. I wrongly assumed it would be a fun day trip. You promise a unique and memorable experience in your mission statement. It surly was and for all the wrong reasons. I am certainly not the only person who disliked your facility. Im fairly educated in animals and their habitats along with what a healthy animal sould look like but I admit I am no expert. However, you received a review from an ANIMAL BIOLOGIST with the same sort of review that I gave. What disturbs me most of all is that you have many critical reviews over many years and STILL you place the blame on the consumer instead of trying to take the feedback and improving your facility. Finally, so you dont feel like Im leaving "a half anonymous review", my name Is Julie Barry, I live in Berlin, MA

We had a great time. Our 3 year old had fun with both the animals and the play area. Paid for a private tour and think it is totally worth it. Isaac did a great job and it was nice learning about the animals back story

Jean HB

We enjoyed interacting with staffs and animals there. The staffs were very professional and friendly. They seem to have great relationships with animals , because animals come to them when they approached. We appreciate that they are doing such wonderful works, so our kids have chance to interact and learn how to love animals.

Justin Eastado

Took the Extreme Exotic Tour with Joel and it was one of the best animal tours I have taken. The tour guide was very informative, entertaining and the interactions with the animals were great. We got to interact with owls, kangaroos, alligators, skunks, foxes, and many other exotic animals. Would highly recommend this tour and would go again in the future.

Marcia Sadlow

Small but the kids had alot of fun.

L B

The caretakers were highly educated on the animals, willing to be of assistance, offered very entertaining shows, and helped with hands on experiences. I was so impressed and very happy we made the trip. Two adults and a toddler, was a great time for is all. Will definitely go again.

Nicole Martin

GO! to this great place! The staff is fantastic and the animals are so beautiful!

Madison Mewhiney

Today was our first time here. Wow! How amazing and fun! There's so much to look at and the animals are beautiful. The staff are incredibly informative and accommodating. Jonathan was knowledgeable and very helpful. 5 stars all around. Highly recommend. We will be back!

I want to start off by saying that the staff was very nice and seemed well-intentioned, but the animals at this "zoo" are not in good shape. The facility was in disrepair with animals crammed into too small, dirty cages and aquariums. I've truly never seen anything like it. One of the tortoises appeared to be dead and decaying in an aquarium. A monkey (alone in an enclosure better sized for a house cat, with no toys or stimulation) repeatedly threw itself against the glass wall while yelling. There was a lynx in an outdoor cage about the size of a small, backyard dog run. There was an alligator in a bathtub. The bathtub was behind glass, but nonetheless, it was a giant alligator being forced to live in an area smaller than my bathroom with a tub not much larger than the one I have in my home. The staff seemed to be quite young and inexperienced. I'm worried someone could be injured at this place. It doesn't seem safe for either humans or animals. There is also the issue of the Creationist propaganda that litters the walls of this "zoo". If you are interested in learning about how humans and dinosaurs roamed the Earth together, then you might be interested in the reading material provided by Animal Adventures. "God vs. Nothing" is how the argument is framed in the monkey room. There is talk of "White Throne Judgement." Please, please do not visit this place. I wish I could unsee how those animals were living.

Tania Gauvin

Very knowledgeable and sweet staff. The animals there look healthy. My son loved being able to play outside and also see animals. My only concern was when a Boa that was shedding was brought out for an animal show. The animal was irritated (should not have been disturbed) and could have been handled more gently. Overall a great place!

Bob Furtado

Great place to visit with a wide array of animals. Angela, our tour guide was very informative and did a great job connecting with my son and making sure he was engaged the entire time.

LeannaPinkSewell

This was such an amazing day for us as adults and for our children. We have seen the touring show a few times before, but didn't know we could visit the actual headquarters. And true to the #, it's way cooler than a zoo! Some people have complained about the appearance of this location, but it was so comfortable and hands on and the parking was easy and free. Everyone was SO welcoming, including the goats that greeted us in the parking lot. This center is focused on caring for their animals and for education humans about these exotic and sometimes domestic animals. They all LOVE their job and it shows. We paid for general admission and got the "cook's tour" from Brian. He let us lead the way and followed the interests of the kids and told us everything there was to know about any of the animals. He played with them and offered to let us hold the ones that were "holdable." You get right next to every animal, including the crocodiles and snakes and lizards, but also the emus, peacocks, monkey, lemurs, bobcat,, lynx, and more. We couldn't get enough of this place and the kids did not want to leave after being there for hours already. The tortoises have free reign over the backyard area and are clearly very comfortable there. The foxes are gorgeous and clearly have a good relationship with the staff. We loved seeing animals that we can usually only see online and in a zoo, but they were within a foot or inches of us. We felt very safe. If you pay for the private tours you get to feed certain animals and possible touch a few more not available to the general public. I would gladly donate to this center anytime and just wished we lived closer than 50 minutes away because we would probably work here and be here all the time. They also have an open bunny and pig pen to go play with them (touch, but don't pick up :-) There are owls, hawks, alpacas, goats, ducks, chickens, parrots, toucans, hairless rats, guinea pigs, a paca, kangaroos, and many more. Just when we thought we had seen them all, there were more to see. Everyone we met who worked there was so helpful. My daughter and I got to hold the ferrets, chameleon, lion haired bunny, hairless rat, toucan, and the snake! They should be charging so much more for what they offer and I hope they're able to have all the facility they need as they continue to grow. This center offers an amazing service to these animals and they are clearly passionate about what they do and they know their facts so well. There is a playground with swings for the kids right by the bunny/pig petting area. They have one bathroom on the premises and we pretty much had the place to ourselves by the time we left around 4pm. We loved every minute of it. They do sell some shirts and stuffed animals for anyone who wants something of a souvenir. They also sell goat food for $1, but let's be honest, the goats will eat anything. They're very sweet. Also, they do offer bunny and ferret (and probably guinea pig) adoption. Maybe even a few more of the domestic animals. What a great way to take some adorable animals home! If we didn't have animals at home that would be "prey" to ferrets, we would have brought two home I think. They are so sweet! Please give this place a visit. It's not a commercial place funded by lots of money, they are here to care for these animals and educate us. Thank you Jonathan and Brian and the rest of the staff for being so helpful and informative!

Elena Mancini

Supper friendly staff. Alot of interaction with animals. Educational and fun. My daughter is 2 and loved it! Not huge so it is great for little ones (nothing is farway) but has alot for the size. Reccomend a visit.

K Bail

What a great place. We went here for a birthday party. Great staff, and sweet animal's. Worth the trip and money.

Michelle Silverman

Great place to see many types of animals

Aaron Shea

Great place with a great staff. Ive reviewed them on Trip Advisor as well. If you go I recommend the Extreme animal tour. Joel was awesome. Good stories for a lot of the animals, even if some of them are a little sad, they all have a happy ending where they are now living here. I've read all of the 1 star reviews on here and I have to say (*this is directly to the owner Ed, whom I believe is doing a great job) that your going to get some reviews in protest no matter what, theres just some people who take it to extremes like that. But I saw not 1 animal I felt was in an uncomfortable or unacceptable situation. There is not a single tortoise with an enclosure to small, and the animals that do seem "cramped" just take a simple curious question as to why and you'll understand immediately. No response ever felt standard, rather overly explained. It comes down to anxiety, and nobody wants to see their animals anxious, even if that requires keeping them somewhere they've gotten maybe a little to big for. Animal anxiety is a real issue at a lot of zoo's, but to say it's an issue here is just not true. They're great people, and a great facility that's doing something great for every animal they can. Keep it up guys, and we will be back sometime to do the tour with the owner once we have the extra cash. Oh, and the kangaroos like shoelaces, just keep that in mind if you'll be meeting them! They're so nice though!

Mieke Bloem

As a biologist excited to visit an “education sanctuary” I must urge anyone considering the visit to not do so until they provide adequate enclosures and living conditions. It was obvious that the staff are not trained biologists and the money being made is for profit. I witnessed so much stress behavior but the Monkey enclosure broke my heart! This is a roadway sideshow to make money— please no more excuses of the “cost to feed”or the animal was too “stressed” to be in an adequate enclosure... we all know it’s just to make people feel Better about the poor living conditions these creatures are in. I don’t doubt this started as an endeavor to care for and learn about animals, but it has turned into nightmare conditions. This is a 3 bedroom ranch housing felines, primates, marsupials, arachnids, mammals and reptiles. It’s dirty, cramped and uses animals for gain. I fear many of them have been acquired for business purposes and NOT rescued. Like The owner stated:”they used to have a pet store”. I cannot believe this place is up to code and not in violation of federal law. Please support places like Audubon instead so we can teach our children to respect all creatures instead of using them as toys. This is a case of “love” gone terribly wrong. It’s like a hoard.

Deborah Hayes

Alex was an amazing tour guide in the after hours tour,I can't wait to return with my daughter.

Bakugou Katsuki

This place is full of incredible animals, and incredible people. I highly recommend going here. I've been here twice already and both times we've had Levi. He's really funny and kind and also takes great care of the reptiles.

James Shea

Took the Extreme Tour. Essentially got as much contact with the animals as was safe - no skimping or rushing us along. Wonderful range of animals, good explanations of their living conditions to assure us they were given as good an environment as possible. Great experience.

Amy Lynne

We did the 2 hour extreme tour today. It was amazing!!!! Petting the kangaroos was my absolute favorite!!!! We had Joel as our tour guide he was awesome!!!! We learned soo much! We can't wait to return!!!!

Lynn Lheureux

I love animals and wish I never went to this place. I had tears in my eyes while walking around, especially after seeing the alligator in the small tank (he can’t even turn around) and the big cats in medium-sized enclosures. The whole place just didn’t seem “right” to me. It makes me very sad. Thanks for responding to my concerns. I understand about the anxiety but if the alligator is in that small tank 24/7 it is pretty concerning. Also, even though you didn't get any warnings, the USDA's prime focus is not animal rights. They just make sure the basic minimum state requirements are being met. I work w/ a wildlife rehabber so I know this to be true. I read through the negative postings on google and most of these reviewers were rehabbers and other animal professionals. They know the behavior of stressed animals, not the average family who takes their kids to your facility for fun. I am glad that the big cat enclosures are being expanded soon.

The Council

If you want a great animal experience I highly recommend coming down to animal adventures. This place is amazing, great for family and friends. They also do great birthday parties. Can't recommend enough. If your in the area definitely check this place out.

Mei Ling McDougall

Horrible conditions and visibly filthy. These animals deserve better.

Lily C.

I had a good time at Animal Adventures. Although the facility is small, the animals all seemed well looked after and healthy. There were many types of animals to see. They even have a bunny enclosure where you can pet them and goats that you can feed. There were a couple things that I thought could be improved upon but nothing that ruined my experience. This visit was in winter and obviously there was some snow and ice which meant there was also a lot of mud (not something that can be controlled). Some sort of pavers might be nice on the outside walkways, though I don't know if they would have actually helped the situation any. I also would have liked to see more information about the individual animals and where they were before they came to Animal Adventures on the enclosures. I appreciated the signs on the little alligator tank in the front room and on the kangaroo enclosure, but I only knew the story about the blind snapping turtle from reading other people's reviews. Overall this was a good experience and I would definitely visit again.

Maddy Bishop

Was interested in going here, looks like they have a lot of cool animals on site, then I looked at photos. What’s up with that kangaroo inclosure? That does not look right at all.

Heidi Hollister

Driving in one may think, “this is it?” But honestly, this was the best experience we have had in ages! Inside the animals are so up close and personal and the staff was all fantastic! What a great variety of animals to see and even touch in some cases. The staff was knowledgeable and the animals all see really happy. Loved it here!

Natalie Stebbins

This place was awesome! People who worked there were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, and this place allowed for some hands-on activities and up-close-and-personal experiences with a number of the animals there! Plus...it was quite affordable!

Kristine Koenig

I was shocked when my 17 yr old son wanted to go to animal adventures. I thought he would get bored in no time. Was I wrong! We did the private tour and right from the first exhinit when he got to hold the armadillo, he was hooked. This is a great place for anyone any age. The tour was a delight. I highly recommend it. The up close and personal experience you get with the many different animals is really a unique experinece. I highly recommend feeding the alligators.

Amanda Labrada

I booked the exotic animal tour for my financè and i as a bday gift as he really loves animals. IT WAS A HIT!! We had Joel as a tour guide and he was so knowledgeable about all the animals and really took his time to give us a GREAT experience..You can tell the animals are well taken care of and the staff genuinely cares about them. Getting to interact with the animals and the great hospitality made this day one to remember for us forsure.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOOKING PRIVATE TOURS.. SUCH AN AMAZING TIME.. THANX AGAIN JOEL!!!!

Kevin Santosuosso

Tiny enclosures, staff poorly trained, would not go back

Amanda Anderson

Small but charming. The staff is super friendly-animals look happy and well taken care of. Love how close you can get to the animals. A bit pricey for such a small place-not someplace I would visit again unless in the area.

Rachel Nason

Did the private tour and it was an amazing experience. Our guide Angela was so sweet and knowledgeable. I wouldn't hesitate to come back.

Allegra Martinez

I'm not sure what people are talking about in regard to kids, but this is a great place for kids definitely safe and the show was super interesting. I really love the familiar feel that I felt there.. I can't wait to go back.

Hayden H

This place is awesome. Staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. I love that this is a sanctuary/rescue for so many different animals. I'll definitely be returning with my nieces. If I owned a home this is what I'd want to do with all the extra space.

Jason Fremont

Amazing staff and service they perform. All were extremely knowledgeable of the animals!

Matthew Hausrath

Great place to visit! Fun for family or otherwise. The show was entrancing, Sean did a great job of keeping the attention of adults and kids alike. He was a wealth of knowledge throughout our stay at the park. Highly encourage anyone who’s on the fence about going to give it a try.

Laura H. Napiorkowski

Went here on a whim and really enjoyed it. Good for young kids as it's not too big, cool animals and super nice and knowledgeable staff.

Scott Bischoff

I had a great time in the kids loved it

Megan Roccia

Wonderful place! The animals are very obviously loved and you get to see a little bit of each of their personalities! The place is much bigger than it appears at first sight! It was a little pricey, but the experience is something that is hard to find. We had Levi as our zookeeper and he was phenomenal for The Extreme Exotic Tour. He was educated, amazing with the animals, and had a good sense of humor. He answered all of our questions with ease.

Josh Larkin

Great place. Joel was extremely patient on our tour with my 2 young boys. Although their attention span is that of a goldfish he still took the time to answer all questions regardless how unrelated they were and made for a memorable experience for all of us. Will definitely recommend. Very friendly staff all around.

Angela Greene

Went on the extreme tour yesterday and it was amazing!! Our zookeeper, Joel, was friendly, fun, and so knowledgeable about all the animals. We learned a lot and especially liked hearing the backstories of how each animal ended up there. We have some great pictures and even better memories! Thank you for all you guys do! We will definitely be back again!!

Pauline Knight

First time there, I am in love. What a wonderful place to see and learn about animals we would never see close up. They are doing a great service. Thank you can't wait to go back.

Cheryl Lafferty

Best little zoo around you learn alot

Evelin Contreras

It was very good I love it

ali yandian

We had a wonderful experience with Bil! She was so engaged and kind and patient with us while we took our time going through our extreme tour! I honestly would come over and over again just to go through this wonderful tour! Everyone we met was so nice and clearly loved what they do! So worth the money and my sister loved doing this for her birthday surprise!

CS Torres

Very educational and interactive. My children got to pet and hold several animals. We all learned something, the staff was very nice, and we had tons of fun.

Kathryn Sheehan

Yo this was so much fun! We went for my friends birthday and got a private tour with Zen. She was incredibly knowledgeable and catered the tour to us! It was so cool feeding the animals and getting inside some enclosures, totally worth it!

Matthew Hausrath

Great place to visit! Fun for family or otherwise. The show was entrancing, Sean did a great job of keeping the attention of adults and kids alike. He was a wealth of knowledge throughout our stay at the park. Highly encourage anyone who’s on the fence about going to give it a try.

Dulshan Kasturiratne

Very cool place with lots of exotic animals. Owners/zookeepers are very helpful in getting you acquainted with the animals, they try their best to help visitors learn about the creatures and if possible let you play with them. Great atmosphere and fun place to spend an afternoon at.

Erica P

These animals come from all over! Whether they were former pets, adopted from a zoo or babies were born and need a home. The tour is great with lots of interactions with certain animals where you can touch them and learn about them. Animals I've never even heard of before! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable. Great for all ages!

Jed Durso

This place was great experience, lots of fun and interactive. Not at all a “zoo” experience where the animals are far away and/or hidden. Completely amazing being right there, interacting. GREAT GREAT STAFF! Everyone patient, knowledgeable and super-outgoing and friendly. Don’t be put aback by how it looks - as Grandma says, “Don’t judge a book by its cover”. This place is a gem! Take the family and go - TODAY!

Wayne Edes Jr

Nice friendly staff showed us all the nooks with the animals inside. Kids liked the petting zoo areas and meeting ferret and skunk, Tortoises and tarantulas oh my!

Anyone Shishov

A great place for kids and - surprisingly - adults as well! A very interesting collection of well cared for animals, lots of interactive opportunities and absolutely GREAT staff that go out of their way to make it a fun experience for everyone. A well kept secret on a small street in Bolton!

Michelle

The staff was very friendly. I also loved the variety of animals and how up close you could get with them. The staff are well intentioned. However, I did have some concerns about enclosure size and cleanliness. Some of the animals were clearly distressed. Where I saw the most egregious conditions was in the reptile room. Most of the reptiles did not have appropriate husbandry (enclosures too small, inappropriate substrates, humidity issues, etc). Let me outline a few concerns: 1. The crested geckos were in a screened enclosure directly in front of a wood stove. Crested geckos require higher humidity (50-70%) which is hard to keep in a screened enclosure nevermind when they are placed in front of a woodstove. They also didn't have hides. 2. The Chinese water dragon enclosure was way too small. They also are an arboreal species needing room and things to climb on neither of which were available. There also was not a water source for it to soak in. 3. The tegu enclosure was so incredibly small as was the two red iguanas enclosure. Too many full grown bearded dragons in an inappropriate sized enclosure. 4. The substrates being used in the reptile enclosures were not suitable. 5. There were two bearded dragons in a 12 inch long critter keeper, one animal was literally laying on top of the other. Why hadn't they been transferred to an appropriate enclosure the moment they arrived? 6. There were several reptiles with stuck shed. They likely need soaks or higher humidity. I am sure these reptiles are in much better conditions than where they came from but, a rescue should provide the best care possible and meet the requirements for each species. The kangaroos broke my heart but, I've got no clue about their care so, I cannot comment. A rescue should never allow for breeding of rabbits. They should all be spayed and neutered before being introduced to the other rabbits. Perhaps the facility would be better off applying for either federal, foundation or private funds in order to provide adequate conditions for all the animals. The facility could also take in fewer animals whilst providing the best care and conditions for the animals they do take in.

Adam DeMaggio

Great place , Shawn was our tour guide and he was amazing. Great with kids too . Definitely recommend the extreme tour .

Ella Nelken

This place was absolutely captivating, it is a wonderful sanctuary that really cares about their animals. You can tell they care because all the animals are healthy, well fed, and energetic. Definitely a must see if you are anywhere near Bolton Massachusetts!

Alyssa Sjollema

Loved this place! Friendly and knowledgeable staff and you get to be so much closer to the animals than a regular zoo. Very reasonably priced!!

M F

Very nice selection and variety of animals! Brian was a wonderful guide! He did a fantastic job describing all of the animals and answering all of our questions. It was a great afternoon spent.

Christopher Manzo-Ciak

Absolutely amazing experience this past weekend at the fox class! It was so great seeing all these different exotic animals up close. The staff were extremely knowledgeable, very personable, and great all around. They welcome questions. You can tell they not only love their job, and working with the animals, but also love teaching people about these beautiful animals. They highly encouraged questions, and were more than willing to talk about other animals as well, not just the ones from the class. I will definitely be coming back asap!

Mark Slauenwhite

This place was awesome. Nice arrangements of animals. I highly recommend a guided tour. Super informational and interactive beyond my expectations. This place was so fun. Don't hesitate to stop by and make memories.

Elaine Carleton

Ot was fun for me and my family they had a animals we could touch. It was so fun we lost track of time. Perfect for kids of all ages.

Kris Strontzer

First, this is a rescue, not a zoo. It’s designed for the animals comfort, not ours. You are welcome to bring your own food and such. An amazing variety of creatures have homes here. Just walking through is wonderful for even a casual animal lover. We took the extreme tour. Not cheap, but the expert, friendly guide kept us fascinated. We got to pet everyone it was safe and legal to pet, as promised with the tour. We loved it. FYI. Right before you reach AA, you reach Colonial Candies, which has a sundae toppings bar and lots of goodies.

William Hollister

A small space, but so much to see and do. They have interactive shows about some of the animals and we were allowed to hold a toucan! My family really enjoyed it and my 5 year old thought it was amazing.

Francois Delpech

We had such a great time with my wife! The staff is super friendly, there is a lot of rescued animals and you can pet most of them. Will definitely go back!

Elena Batrukova

This is a fantastic place to go to with your kid. Staff is extremely friendly and always willing to let gou pet different animals. Those people do an amazing job helping all sorts of abused creatures - I wish they would get more support from city and state for what they are doing

James Drohan

Love this place. Staff fully engaged and knowledgeable. There is an animal interaction knowledge class too!

Debbie Kaufman

The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. We were able to play in the bunny pen and pet a lot of the animals. Super cute, warm and friendly place!

hatcheese please

Absolutely amazing! They take such good care of the animals and theyre specific and special needs. Definitely going back in the future!

Malena Chastain

Amazing place. So hands on, beautiful animals and very intimate. Staff is knowledgeable and kind. We had a great time!

Kylie E Faxon

This was one of the best experiences I have ever had! The animals are so loved- it is more than obvious when speaking with the staff. They all know each of the animals’ personalities and have fun stories to share. I was so fascinated by the knowledge our tour guide, Joel had to share! Joel was outgoing, loving toward every single animal and incredibly kind to me and my husband. We also met the owner, Ed and was able to speak with him- such a wonderful man! I couldn’t recommend this place any higher- I can’t wait to go back!!

Dan Rowe

We enjoy visiting Animal Adventures and all of their furry friends. Keep an eye on their Facebook page. They are always hosting special events for what after types of animals you might want to learn more about.

Mongseyla Touch

Fantastic staff. Great place. You can do general admission (14) or private tour (35). The later will allow you to pet animals as well as learn about their stories.

Brenda Sekenski

We really enjoyed our trip to Animal Adventures! So many cute animals the kids got to see and hold. I highly recommend!

Tara Harrison

Amazing little zoo. Very interactive & lots of opportunities to touch animals. Bring your own lunch. :-)

Daniel Ciccone

I'm somewhat biased in my opinion since my mother volunteers here. This place is amazing. It's like a mini Zoo in farm country. They have exotic animals as well as farm animals and you can take a guided tour and hold some of the animals. Like baby goats for instance

Jeanette Champagne

We have used this company for my work family fun day for two years now and both experiences have been above and beyond expectations. The staff is phenomenal and so knowledgeable as well as professional about the animals they present. The young lady who presented at this years event was just so wonderful! She stayed late and talked to everybody after the show. She went above and beyond to make the show special. We couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to book them for next year!

Tom Breault

Amazing place for anyone of all ages to visit. The staff are knowledgable of all of their animals and very passionate about each and every one of them! I would recommend d everyone to pay a visit. I'll be sure to go back another time.

Paul Breen

So much fun. An amazing experience. Will definitely be back. We did the $35 tour, worth every penny.

Dorina Enes

This is an animal rescue and rehab facility. I really respect what these guys are doing for the animals people think they want as pets but learn the hard way they can't keep, or those that become injured. This a great place to learn about animals and even get to handle some. They have a volunteer program for kids ages 12 and up that want to learn about animal care. They also host birthday parties, corporate events, and summer camps. They have a great outdoor play area, with picnic tables, and a bunny petting area. I don't know about the logistics of how animals are kept or potentially relocated but the only thing that was hard for me to see was some of the animals in cages, such as the kangaroos. It just seemed to be an incredibly small space for them. Maybe this isn't where they are always kept though. I didn't ask. If there isn't parking at the main entrance, there's an extra upper lot with a path right to their grounds. Overall would recommend for any wildlife lovers!
