We
believe children
are the key to the survival of not just the big cats but the world
as a whole.
"Tell me and I
forget; show me and I remember; involve me and I understand".
Chinese Proverb
Nothing compares to seeing a lion's eyes or hearing a tiger chuff.
For this reason, Serenity Springs Wildlife Center is available
for class field trips, scouting groups and tours designed
specifically for daycare centers.
We hope the spark ignited in a child's heart after seeing the animals turns
out to be a priceless contribution to the future. For older
students, we believe a tour of our facility will enhance their scientific studies.
When you arrive for a scheduled visit, a guide will take you
throughout the facility explaining how cats come to us, what their adjustment
was like and their special needs, such as their likes and dislikes. Your guide
will be able to answer questions on the care and keeping of the
animals. You are sure to hear some fascinating tales relating
to the care of these wonderful animals.
Kids, do you know what a caracal is
and what sound it makes? You can get a sneak peak of one below, listen
carefully to hear him trill. When you come out to the facility, you'll see
how much Kit has grown up and maybe he'll even trill for you in person!
Parents
and teachers are expected to ensure children behave in a proper
manner adhering to all rules set forth
by this facility. We strive to educate young and old alike
on the care of and responsibility to big cats in captivity.
Send us an
email
to schedule a tour or class trip. We will contact you and give
you more information on how we can add to class enrichment.
