Meet Annie ...
Annie is one of our six resident southeastern black bears. When she
was only six weeks old, poachers in Tennessee Killed her mother. They
then pulled out all of Annie’s claws with a pair of pliers. They not
even used sedation. Fortunately, the poachers videotaped their
actions and when they were caught, that tape served as evidence
against them in federal court. They received a mandatory 2-5 year
prison term and a $10,000 fine for their horrible deed.
Today she is doing much better,
but we would like to see her able to run and play in a proposed 3-acre
natural habitat we have planned for her and our five other bears. We
sincerely thank Mr. Howard Buffet for his generous contribution which
enabled us to purchase the tract of land needed for this project.
However, a total of $67,000 is still needed to complete construction
of the habitat.
Because we specialize in large
groups, there is a minimum $100 overnight fee for groups of ten or
less. This fee includes $50 for lodging and $50 for a private tour of
the sanctuary. Groups larger than ten are priced according to the
programs they select and should call for a quote.
