Popcorn Park Animal Refuge was established in 1977 for the sole purpose of providing a refuge for wildlife that were sick, elderly, abandoned, abused, or injured, and which could no longer survive in its natural habitat. All our residents once faced these circumstances, as well as exploitation and illegal ownership. You may be greeted at the gate by a parade of peacocks, around the corner you’ll see African lions, tigers, mountain lions, primates as well as native wildlife such as white-tailed and fallow deer, and American black bears. Farm animals such as horses, donkeys, llamas, sheep, pigs and goats often look for some visitors, and reptiles and tortoises enjoy their own special places. In addition, you'll find numerous species of birds have made themselves comfortable throughout the park. But what makes Popcorn Park so special is that each animal was rescued from suffering, exploitation and/or death - each has its own unique story to tell.

🐢 Happy National Reptile Awareness Day! 🦎

From tortoises and box turtles to caimans and tegus, Popcorn Park is home to a variety of reptile species, each with their own unique needs and special care requirements.

Reptiles are often misunderstood, and the amount of specialized care they need can be easy to underestimate. Providing the right environment, diet, temperature, and ongoing care takes time, knowledge, and dedication.

At Popcorn Park, residents like Tank, Croc, Udon, and the rest of our reptile family have a safe, loving home where they can receive the care they need for the rest of their lives. 💚
