- To prevent and alleviate cruelty to animals which are abandoned or were subject to deprivation or neglect, by providing care and boarding.
- To rescue and provide life-long homes for large, exotic and endangered captive wild animals and to educate the public about the causes of and solutions to the world?s captive wildlife crisis.
America and the world have a captive wildlife crisis. As many as 30,000 captive great cats, bears, wolves and other large carnivores are living in substandard conditions throughout the U.S. In fact, after illegal drugs and weapons, the exotic animal trade is the third largest source of illicit profits in America?and the world?today.
The Wild Animal Sanctuary is all about saving the victims of this crisis. We crisscross the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Central and South America and the rest of the world rescuing captive exotic and endangered large carnivores that have been abused, abandoned, exploited or illegally kept.
We have traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to more than 45 states, many multiple times, on rescue missions?and into Mexico, Panama, Bolivia, Uruguay, Argentina and many other countries over the years, as well?saving animals from dreadful circumstances and bringing them back to the wide open space of large acreage habitats where they have plenty of space, exceptional diets and proper veterinary care for as long as they live.
Our goal is to give them a life of dignity and respect and to make their life as it would be if they could choose. TWAS also works tirelessly to educate humans about the causes of?and solutions to?the captive wildlife crisis.Date and Time
