If you’ve ever wanted to get up close and personal with animals that can’t be found in zoos, here’s your chance. The International Exotic Animal Sanctuary in Boyd is home to some of the most unique exotic and/or endangered animals in the world – and you have the opportunity to meet them.
The sanctuary includes lions, tigers, bears (oh my!), bobcats, cougars, jaguars, and other exotic species.
