This is one of many great whole in the wall spots in Las Vegas!!
The animals are fun to watch as they get daily enrichment and the birds will chirp your ears off :D
And when the animals are just lounging in their den box, I enjoy having a nice chat with the keepers who are knowledgeable and share their experience caring for their animals.
Overall, this is a nice non expensive way to let the time pass while waiting for any hotel checkin!

I’ve been to the Lion Habitat Ranch several times. Each time the staff was amazing, answering questions and facilitating opportunities to see the animals close up. But, no animal is pushed to interact, which I find important. They put these animals first and every keeper’s dedication is evident. As a nonprofit, proceeds from admission fees and lion feeds go back to caring for the animals. I highly recommend checking this unique experience out and seeing first hand some amazing animals and their wonderful keepers.

As a volunteer of the lion habitat ranch I have seen first hand the work and love that goes into the animals here. I started off as a regular guest but watching the love for the animals I was inspired to work with them. I have never seen more dedicated people. These animals receive better care than most other facilities I have worked with. This is such a beautiful place with a beautiful history and if I had all the time and money in the world I’d give it all to be with them 24/7. I love the Lion Habitat Ranch.

This such a wildlife gem that is located in a real urban area. We got to feed the giraffe and wander around at our own pace.

Lion Habitat Ranch is a great way to spend part of your day! The behind the scenes tour was informative and interesting. We fed the lions with Dana… it was an amazing experience! and we learned so much! All the keepers were knowledgeable, kind and patient with our numerous questions… best of all they seemed to truly love their jobs and the animals! Highly recommend.

Awesome animal sanctuary near Las Vegas! My family visited during our last trip to Vegas and it was quite enjoyable. It had many lions, a giraffe, some ostriches, and even a tortoise. The employees were kind and knowledgeable; you can tell they are really fond of the animals. It even had a lion feeding experience that allows you to safely feed the majestic felines! Definitely a fun little place to check out next time you’re in Vegas.

We loved visiting the lions habitat! The cats are beautiful and obviously very well taken care of. We got to see how their trainers interact with them as well. So cool.

My kids favorite part of the visit, however, was seeing the giraffe and trying to feed him!

Valuable community asset! Having a place for kids to learn about the world in Vegas is so vital! The animals are well cared for and it’s obvious the moment you talk to any staff member how much they love their job and every single animal. It’s really a win win win!

Vegas needs places like this as does the world. They are such a great place of education and caring for their animals. They really take the role of seeing the animals as ambassadors and promoting conservation seriously. The staff is so caring, and you can tell they think the animals are family. When you visit you know that your ticket sale goes to a good cause.

I have gone multiple times, love bringing out of town family here to see all the animals. You can actually watch Ozzie (giraffe) paint and buy the bag or painting!! Take a picture in a safari jeep with a live lion "riding" in the back!
The staff has always been so lovely, answering any questions and offering info on the animal they are tending to.
Definitely worth the trip to see in you are in Vegas!!

Loved seeing the retirement home for the lions and the beautiful giraffe, Ozzy! The lions have spacious areas and it's clear to see the lions are well cared for and loved..we enjoyed watching them eat and interact with their caretakers. Ozzy is also a fantastic painter so that was fun to see.

Had an absolute blast visiting the Lion Habitat! All of the caretakers are so knowledgeable of the lions and their needs, as well as each individual lions story on where they came from. I went and spent the afternoon there with my cousins and a friend, and it was so memorable and awesome. I feel the animals are well cared for and the caretakers truly care about each of them.

The Lion Habitat is a fun place to visit. I enjoyed hearing about the history of the lions. Watching the giraffe paint ws a hoot. Bring a hat and water, as there is limited shade.

This place is an incredible spot of fun in the desert. The keepers are knowledgeable, informative, and so nice. They have birds, emus, ostriches, tortoises, guinea fowl, Nevada's only giraffe, and LIONS! I fed Ozzie the giraffe, learned so much, and shopped in the store for an original painting by Ozzie. So so much fun!!!

I've been visiting the Lion Habitat for over 7 years. I love the back story to the owners who use to train with the lions, help raise them & take such good care of them. When the zoo closed, they took in even more animals. I make several trips to Las Vegas annually and each time I enjoy a visit to see what the animals and volunteers are doing as well as follow on social media. We need to protect our animal kingdom and in particular the breed of these lions as they are endangered. and educational teach our future generations about them. The Lion Habitat is a great place to do that.
