dade city's wild things印象

I loved hugging the baby tiger and my partner playing with the baby monkey in diapers. The zoo tour however made me sad, the big cats were in such small enclosures. Just wishing some of the money could go to enlarging these cat pens. The buffalo, and herd animals seem to have lots of room. I guess it is a lack of funds.

Dade City wild things is such an amazing place. Best Wild life zoo I've ever been too. I loved getting to learn everything about each animal and being so close up to the animals. Also my favorite part about this zoo is that you can have encounters with some of the wild animals, which is so amazing. I love the zoo and every time I visit Florida I will come back to the zoo. I also love how friendly and personal all the staff are. It's just a great place all around! Plus all the animals are loved and rescued. I don't understand why people would give this place a bad ratings. Yes, the animals cages could be bigger. But when a zoo is opened to the public the State has to inspect it to make sure regulations on the number of animals that can be kept in a certain-sized enclosure. If there was too many animals in a size cage they would not be able to be shown till it was fixed. Also I believe all the rules at the zoo are very appropriate. You are on private property, the owners live there. They allow the public to come in and enjoy being close up to the animals and getting to encounter with their animals. Most people are used to a public zoo instead of a more rehabilitation and rescue zoo. One of the main reasons I love this zoo is because they take in animals that need medical help or that are endangered. Also half of your zoo admission ticket goes to help Endangered Species Conservation Fund. Which is a plus because more animals then you know are being killed and sold for taxidermy, poaching and illegal wild life trade. Tigers have lost 93% of their historic range due to it. While this zoo is saving certain species and protecting them. So in my opinion Dade City Wild Things is a great place.

Such a perfect day at dades city wild things! Everything was so cheap, and you can tell this family really cares about the animals they have! They let you spend time with the animals instead of letting you hold it for 1 min and take a picture like most places! I got to spend 20 min playing with the baby tiger and the staff takes over 200 pictures of you through out the day to make sure you get pictures you love! I will deff be back!

This kitten was only 3 weeks old but in four years it will be a 600 pound Bengal Tiger. This place is so much more than a zoo. The interaction we had with the animals, the guides, and park transportation (A trolly, and a Tram) were "Beyond Disney" This is a family business. That makes it necessary to read and sign several documents for visitors to understand RISK involved. The wild things can bite, scratch, and scream, This place makes visitors THINK and appreciate humans must be friends to animals that may not have immediate and mutual trust. Sad but true the handler has a fire arm for human protection of the human even if the human has provoked the animal.

My family and I visited Dade City Wild Things over New Years and we were rendered speechless. We ranged in age from mid twenties to mid sixties and each and everyone of us had a memorable experience. The tour was a pleasure filled with so much information about the wild life. But then we got to have an encounter with a 9 week old Bengal Tiger. The trainer brought her out and we all helped with her bottle and then sat on the floor while she rolled around and played with toys. She was teething and chewed on everything, but had already been trained to keep her claws in. I have memories and glorious pictures (that they took for us) to help me remember this great experience. This place is a must!!!

My husband and I visited recently and we were the only ones there. We took the trolley tour in the morning, followed by an animal session, and then a walking tour in the afternoon. Having private tours was amazing; we had the guides to ourselves! We really enjoyed seeing the animals up close and learning interesting facts. Feeding the buffalo was cool (even when it licked me). And then we had an informational session with their baby tiger. There wasn't much "information" but it was pretty neat as I've never touched a tiger before. He was so cute and playful. The only negative is that they don't let you take personal pictures. They took some on the trolley tour of us feeding the buffalo and with the tiger that you could purchase but they didn't really turn out too great. I would have liked to take pictures of the animals themselves. Overall, our tour guides were very knowledgeable and pleasant and we had a really nice time!

I really loved the experience and the place was immaculant as far as being kept clean but the trolley guy was very unprofessionaland the encounter was unbelievableI wish I could say I could do it again but not without a stroller

Good experience for families and children to learn more about wild animals. I would make a morning appointment then after you are done stroll in the quaint shops in downtown Dade City

We enjoyed our visit and found the zoo to be clean and the staff to be very friendly. My daughters enjoyed the encounter with the baby tiger and I enjoyed petting the baby monkey. We paid for pics and got a few good ones. Hope you go and enjoy this place.
