Review for Animal Park at the Conservators Center, Burlington, NC, USA
The Conservators Center is a facility that takes in animals when their owners can no longer care for them and that also rescues animals from various unsafe or unhealthy conditions. They are amazing creatures and the Conservators Center guides will explain each animal’s story and how they came to live at the Center. Some of the rescued animals came from previously horrible situations, and it’s astonishing to see how well they are recuperating and actually thriving at the Center with proper nutrition, healthcare and even play time. The staff at the Conservators Center is wonderful with their animals and provides them with everything they need to live happy healthy lives. When touring the Center, you are always a safe distance from the animals, but you can get much closer than at a zoo so that you can really see the animal well. You’ll even be able to hear and smell them from such a close distance and it really enhances the experience. Learning the life stories of and interacting so closely with the animals makes you feel bonded to them. Sometimes one of the animals will begin creating a noise and then they all join in the chorus. The wolves howl, the lions roar, the tigers grumble, the singing dogs sing and even the smaller animals join in with their calls. The sound of all these animals in unison is out of this world and can give you chills. It’s a truly remarkable experience.
