Review for The Wild Animal Sanctuary- Texas (formerly International Exotic Feline Sanctuary, Inc.), Boyd, TX, USA
I'm currently interning at IEAS. There are so many wonderful things to say about this Sanctuary, I don't know where to begin. Everything here is done for the animals to give them the most comfortable, stress-free life that they can have. This is apparent in just about everything that you see happening around the sanctuary, from the large, naturalistic habitats designed for the animals, to the food prepared early in the morning. Even the our daily tours are designed to both educate the public about the exotic animals we have here and be given in a manner that doesn't agitate the animals. All of the staff and volunteers display a clear love for the animals living at IEAS, and I am truly blessed to be a part of such a wonderful organization, helping to give the best care possible to animals that were once neglected, abused, and lived life without any love.
