My Nonprofit Reviews

Having been able to experience the Santuary first hand as an Animal Care Intern, I have so many great things to say about Boyd's very own International Exotic Animal Sanctuary. Firstly, the animals housed here are some of the most amazing creatures around and are brought up in such a caring, clean, and enriching environment. The staff, interns, and volunteers have such a high amount of respect for these incredible animals and it definately shows through the extreme comfortability and happiness shown by the Sanctuary's furry inhabitants. One of the best parts about IEAS includes their dedication to promote the conservation and welfare of the animals by allowing the public to get a rare glimpse of these truly amazing creatures first hand and up close via a personal, fun, and educational tour. 100% of the proceeds from these guided tours are directly benefitting the animals and that in itself shows how much the Santuary cherishes and thoroughly takes care of these abandoned, confiscated, rescued, and/or previously mistreated animals.
Along with providing the best care and environment possible for all of the animals, IEAS has one of the most, if not best, educational/intern programs in the country. I learned so much about animal care, husbandry, and even just about life through the unique opportunites available here at the Santuary. I definately owe them for giving me the opportunity to intern at such a highly respected and renown facility, and will one day thank them for providing a starting point of my long career in exotic animal care and conservation.
