DADE CITY'S WILD THINGS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit Sanctuary Zoo.
Our beautiful 22-acre facility is located in the heart of Pasco County in historical Dade City, Florida. We pride ourselves on providing a natural botanical garden landscape environment for the animals in our facility.

Stop by and visit our GIFT SHOP, featuring zoo animal themed home decor, jewelry, tiffany lamps, photos, art works, stuffed animals, educational toys, games and gifts for all ages. All proceeds go to support the animals.

From there you can jump on our authentic street trolley to take a short ride to the zoo:

Experience a “once in a lifetime” walking trek or Safari Tram Ride of over 200 ANIMALS ON EXHIBIT, surrounded by a natural botanical garden landscape.

You will be amazed at how close you will be to stalking tigers, playing bears, roaring lions, mischievous monkeys, swimming otters, calling birds and so much more! It will be an experience you will never forget as these animals interact with your personal guide, in most cases within three feet of your tour group!

Our mission is to provide quality, lifetime care for animals needing homes and to educate the public about these creatures that share our planet and to instill in our visitors a love for all animals.

We are also licensed and inspected by the State of Florida and Federally by Aphis-USDA Animal Care. We work closely with State and Federal agencies and USDA facilities and zoos throughout the United States to rescue, adopt or place more animals, as they need homes.

HANDS-ON ANIMAL ENCOUNTERS!
Would you enjoy a hands-on encounter with a baby tiger cub or monkey? Immediately following our Zoo Tours, animal encounters are offered in the gardens.  Animals become available for this program at various times, so please inquire. Remember, proceeds benefit our animals! You can also arrange for longer, private sessions with our animals. Zoo parties are available, too. Call for details. We appreciate your support!

ENDANGERED SPECIES CONSERVATION FUND
Dade City’s Wild Things is proud to contribute to the Endangered Species Conservation Fund.  A percentage of your encounters goes to support ESCF.  This is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream to educate the public on the plight of these awesome animals and to support field conservation efforts to protect these wonderful creatures for generations to come.  Visit www.escf.org for more information.

Please wear comfortable, slip-resistant shoes as the setting is all natural so the terrain is uneven and hilly in places.

Tiger Tracks Food Station is available at our Gift Shop for your convenience. All proceeds benefit the animals.

We receive no state or federal funding. We survive strictly on the generosity of animal lovers like you who understand the importance of our cause—the animals!
