Dade City's Wild Things

Dade City's Wild Things is an animal sanctuary located just north of Tampa in the small town of Dade City. Featuring over 200 animals, visitors can view a wide variety of species from big cats such as jaguars, Florida Panthers, and African Lions to primates such as baboons, lemurs and macaques. Visiting is by guided tour only and visitors are transported to the zoo's location from an office space and gift shop in town. Two types of tour are offered, a 2-hour walking tour and a 1-hour tram tour. These tours can also be bundled for savings. If you want to get up close, personal animal encounters are offered for an additional fee.
