Colorado is teeming with activities to partake in and sites to visit; one place that definitely deserves recognition is The Wild Animal Sanctuary, a place that animal lovers and anyone with a few spare hours on their hands will certainly enjoy. The Wild Animal Sanctuary, which currently operates two Colorado facilities, serves as a salvation for predatory animals from across the globe who need a place to call home, and provides them with more than ten thousand acres in total.

Visiting the Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg, Colorado is fairly affordable, with a $30.00 admission fee for adults and $15.00 for children, plus a small donation. Allowing civilians to tour an extensive facility on a wooden bridge hoisted in the air, the Wild Animal Sanctuary provides animals with habitats that emulate their natural environment. Providing lots of clear vantage, people can traverse the bridge and see the animals. Many of which were saved from horrible conditions, often neglected or found in cramped garages, backyards, or other tight spaces not suitable to house such animals. Tour guides, who are situated throughout different areas of the bridge, are incredibly hospitable and eager to answer any questions one may have. One might also receive a pamphlet containing the stories of several of the animals, their life prior to being relocated to the Sanctuary, how they came to be there, and how they are faring now.

As a whole, the Wild Life Sanctuary not only provides a safe place for animals but also a lasting experience for visitors, who leave with an appreciation of these majestic animals and their individual stories. The Wild Animal Sanctuary is, without a doubt, a remarkable place and a great experience for all ages.
