This "zoo" does not have the knowledge, expertise, nor the finances to adequately care for the melange of animals on its premises. The owners should have a heart and allow the animals to be taken to sanctuaries by Zoocheck. This is a sad excuse for a zoo and I had to leave because it made me sick to see the horribly lacking conditions the animals are forced to live in.
Sucks dont waste your time..cages are very small and not clean at all
This was one of our favorite things to do in Sault Ste Marie ON. The founders are a darling retired couple and they are caring for some amazing critters. Well worth your time and money. Amazing value here with lots of photo ops. It is stroller friendly with a picnic and play area.
I guess we should have expected as much from a zoo outside of Sault Ste Marie but as there wasn't must else to do my girlfriend and I decided to check it out. We went off a brochure in the lobby rather than reading the reviews. As most of the other reviewers have noted, the place is awful. As animal-lovers, we were appalled. There are indeed two large lions at the entrance and I inquired from the owner about them. She told me they were born in captivity. But they had made no attempt to engage their natural instincts mentally or physically. They were laying about in a large pen. We continued on to see if the cage was larger but instead found it packed in with pens for several other animals. Including a coyote that was just laying about like my dogs at home. All were in small, uninteresting pens. They seemed to basically be kept as pets. We had to leave as my girlfriend was close to tears. Indeed we both felt traumatized by the experience and resolved to share this information with as many people as we can. Do not support this zoo.
