Performing Animal Welfare Society (PAWS)

Most of these animals are rescues that suffered through years of neglectful conditions at regional circuses while the paying public viewed them so in many cases, humans are the last interactions these animals want to be near. Some are simply older animals that needed care or were rescued out of private homes. Most have never been in their "natural habitats" and could never care for themselves in the wild. "Places like this" need donations to provide safe open spaces, clean facilities, and veterinary care in order to continue to operate.

Thank God I just learned about your place when I was walking back at the North fork fishing access . We could see the elephants so I learned about you and have wanted to come when the public is allowed to pay to see the tigers🥰 I have scrapbooks about tigers I truly love them❤️❤️Thank you so much for the tireless work you do to protect all the animals and rescue the ones you can.You truly are hero's

No but I wish I could if I had it my way I'd have all the babies from every where rescued and would help Lucy in a heartbeat but now I will pray for her

There is quite a bit of walking. Rain or shine. There was a golf cart available but wouldn't count on that. Call them directly
