Our new surrenders 🦎❤️

01/17/2026

It's been busy at Joe-Rassic Park
We've had several surrenders including 11 snakes at once!!

Most are underfed but generally healthy. However, one was tragically ill so we rushed it to PGA Animal Clinic, P.A. where he succumbed to his illness overnight. 😢

Rescue work carries both joy and heartbreak. We have to remember that we can’t save them all, and still hold onto the good we do for the many who get a second chance because of compassion and community. Thank you for standing with us.

We're getting ready for and hoping to raise some much-needed funds to help our critters through the winter months! We've had a surge in surrenders as well and need new enclosures to give them the best chance at finding their forever homes. Every donation, big or small, counts! We've also set up an Amazon wish list if you'd rather gift something directly. Sharing with friends and family would also mean the world to us! Thanks so much for your support, and we at the sanctuary wish you a wonderful holiday season!! 🍻
