Exhibits
A walking tour of the sanctuary explores six areas: pasture animals, primates, commissary, reptile house, the woods, a large animal holding area (temporary housing for newly adopted animals), and a black bear house.
Pasture animals include a llamas, goats, equine, pot-belly pigs, ostrich, emu, rhea, and fallow deer. Visitors may enjoy supervised interaction though barrier fences including feeding the animals while observing from under a shelter canopy. The primate house is home to macaques, a chimpanzee, baboon, bush baby, cotton-top tamarins, as well as several other non-primate mammals. Optional tours of the commissary, where food is stored and diets are prepared daily, are available. The reptile house houses snakes, Green iguanas, bearded dragon, American alligator, tortoises, and more. The woods include a number of individual habitats for big and small cats, as does the large animal holding area. Residents include Bengal tigers, African lions, puma, bobcats, leopards, gray wolf, and arctic fox.

Famous quotes containing the word exhibits:
“Uncritical semantics is the myth of a museum in which the exhibits are meanings and the words are labels. To switch languages is to change the labels.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“After all the field of battle possesses many advantages over the drawing-room. There at least is no room for pretension or excessive ceremony, no shaking of hands or rubbing of noses, which make one doubt your sincerity, but hearty as well as hard hand-play. It at least exhibits one of the faces of humanity, the former only a mask.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Every woman who visited the Fair made it the center of her orbit. Here was a structure designed by a woman, decorated by women, managed by women, filled with the work of women. Thousands discovered women were not only doing something, but had been working seriously for many generations ... [ellipsis in source] Many of the exhibits were admirable, but if others failed to satisfy experts, what of it?”
—Kate Field (1838–1908)
