What the experts agree on
McCarthy's Wildlife Sanctuary lets you get up close with 170+ animals—lions, tigers, and native Florida wildlife—in an intimate, reservation-only setting that prioritizes animal welfare through rescue and rehabilitation efforts.
“With entry by reservation only, this wildlife sanctuary takes unwanted exotics and treats dozens of native animals that are sick or injured and then releases them back to the wild.”
