Wild Animal Sanctuary of Colorado

Rehabilitation For Abused Large Carnivores

Mike Oberg

The Wild Animal Sanctuary in Colorado is the oldest and largest non-profit sanctuary in the U.S. They have many tigers, lions, bears, wolves, and other animals that were originally pets or animals from closed zoos.

    Great pictures. I love lions and tigers and basically any kind of cat wild or domestic.

    Having spent a ton of time working to rehabilitate and return orphaned and injured animals to the wild, I can honestly say that I generally don't find the situations these animals find themselves in humane even when good intentions are involved.

    @Melinda, that is why most of the animals are here -- someone thought they would be a cute pet.
