I cannot say enough about the good works of Black Pine Animal Sanctuary. The staff and loyal volunteers are an amazing group of individuals.
My first interaction with BPAS was in the fall of 2012. I desperately needed to find a home for a domesticated fox who could no longer remain with her owner. BPAS helped me through the process and eventually gave this little fox sanctuary within their facility. For this fox it was her last shot at a decent life. I will always be grateful for the kindness shown and the professional manner in which transitioning this fox to BPAS was conducted.
I continue to maintain close contact with Black Pine and follow them on Facebook and via their website. They are a fine organization in which I support every chance I get. They truly care about their animals. I will be making a sixteen hour trip this month to pay BPAS a visit. It will be worth every mile.

Our family watched the documentary, "The Elephant in the Living Room." We are about 2 hours from Black Pine and decided to make the trip with our 4 kids. We all enjoyed the tour, facility and learned a lot that day. We are planning more return trips!

Went with my daughters preschool class and the staff were very good with them and understanding if there lack of patience. This is a GREAT place for young children or anyone really to learn about excotic animals in the wild and how u are suppose to take care of them.

We visited Black Pine this fall at their Halloween festivities for the first time. It was a wonderful park! We were able to see the animals closer than our traditional zoo and learn their history. The people who worked there were very friendly and took time to discuss each animal. The park offers so much for the community, not only to assist the exotic cast aways but to enrich the lives of our community members by showing compassion for their animals and promoting responsible pet ownership. My family as well as anyone who will listen to me will be visiting Black Pine and supporting Black Pine for years to come! Thank you Black Pine for all you do!
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
My children have a better understanding of why keeping exotic pets is not appropriate. The also have seen the compassion displayed towards animals and have learned to appreciate wildlife better.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would donate all the money in the world to expand this sanctuary and ensure its survival as it is a place that is needed. Places like these are wonderful, but also struggle to make ends meet financially and rely on generous donations.
