tiger creek wildlife refuge印象

My wife and I decided to stop in and give a look, it was well worth the time spent, the staff was pleasant and very knowledgeable about the lions and tigers history that live in the sanctuary, they are making nice upgrades to the facilities. They all seem to be cared for in a loving way. In my opinion it was worth them time to stop and visit. We definitely stop back in the future to see the final upgrades.

My family visited here and enjoyed it. You get a private tour guide when you go here the guides give tell you the animals story and it makes it interesting. This place saves cats they may other be put down if they don't take them in.

Loved this place. Rescue place for big cats: tigers, lions, pumas and wildcats. Guide explains the story behind each. Very touchingh. Clean facility and nice people. Visit takes about an hour, you can stay longer.

This rescue site has nice large confinement areas for the big cats and each has a name and a story. lots of variety for a reasonable donation/fee

Friday was another beautiful day, as we headed to Tiger Creek Wildlife Refuge, in Tyler, Texas. Another terrific destination spot a mere 90 minutes or so from Dallas. Tiger Creek is a refuge for over three dozen big cats, the majority of which are various tiger breeds, but they also house a few lions, bobcats, and pumas, as well. We toured the grounds in a small group of 5 people, getting educated about tigers, and hearing the stories of how many of the cats wound up at Tiger Creek. One is an ex-circus cat, and many were raised by owners who didn't seem to really think all the way through the reality of having one of these magnificent creatures as a house pet. The vast majority are older (a few getting close to 20), but there are a couple of youngsters (around 2 years old) on the grounds. The enclosures are being upgraded nicely, and the building of a vet clinic on the grounds is underway. Everyone we encountered was extremely nice, and the executive director, Brian Werner, was extremely generous with his time, offering my wife and I a unique opportunity to hear the Tiger Creek story from one of the founders. Linda at the front desk, and our tour guide, Arielle, were most helpful and informative. We'll be going back, for sure. P.S. - After the tour, you're free to roam the grounds, take pictures, etc.

This is a wonderful place just 5 minutes off the Interstate. There is a guided tour that gives you a little information on the rescued animals. It's about a 20-30 minute tour & then you can walk on your own. They are growing & adding improved habitats for the animals. Very cool stopover.

This place is so neat and fun to see! Our tour guide was very knowledge and really made the tour unique by telling us about each cat and their habits. I wanted to snuggle them all (obviously snuggling is not allowed) :). We had a great time!

We enjoyed it very much. We printed a worksheet from their website for my daughter to fill out while we were there. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and patient with all our questions. We would definitely go back again.

We don't like seeing animals in captivity but they look like they really care about the tigers. The enclosures could be larger and they are busy building new ones. There were no proper toilet facilities other than porta-loos. The guide was very knowledgeable and the cats were gorgeous.

Our guide was a wonderful intern from Tenessee. She knew each and every tiger and lion and their quirks. We had a wonderful visit. Great to see someone doing so much for these large cats.
