Wild animals have the spotlight for the special, guided exotic animal sanctuary visit on Saturday, Oct. 31 at 10AM. Visitors are invited to come in costume to watch as rescued animals devour stuffed pumpkins, splash around in their pool, and play around with their siblings.

All proceeds benefit the rescued animals, providing food, enrichment, habitat maintenance, veterinary care and more. Lions Tigers & Bears is enforcing guidelines ensuring a safe sanctuary visit, including limiting group sizes and requiring face coverings and a 6-foot physical distance between visitors, volunteers and staff.

These activities are limited capacity, and the sanctuary requires families to reserve their space in advance online HERE or by calling 619-659-8078. Member pricing is $30 for adults and $15 for kids, and for non-members, $60 for adults and $35 for kids.

See you there….and stay healthy, San Diego!
