Other Information

Special permits are not required for any of our exotic animals.

All deer on the property over 6 months of age are free to come and go at will, which they do.

All orphaned or injured wildlife are released within 6 months of original care date unless euthanized for permanent and debilitating injuries or disease. Any exceptions for extended care are reported to the local game warden. For example orphans such as bobcats which take longer to teach to hunt or seriously injured animals requiring extensive therapy. No wild born animals are kept for display, or handled past weaning by anyone other than the primary care giver when necessary.

All wild born animals turned over to us for care will not be adoptable to private homes under any circumstances. It is illegal in Oklahoma to have wild animals as pets. We do not give care advice to people trying to raise these animals without permits. We will help you locate a wildlife rehabilitator and give temporary care instruction until one can be found, or you can bring the animal to us if we have the room or time for imprinted wildlife.

We do not have a USDA exhibition permit so we do not exhibit any animals for any purpose.
