OUR AMAZING ANIMALS

We can't show you every amazing animal the world has to offer, but we can certainly help kindle a love for animals and wildlife with the ones we do

The majority of our animals have been rehomed to us. The work we do allows us to keep the animals and to accept additional ones from time to time on a case by case basis. Only members of our family who are happy to get involved and interact with you are listed here. Animals that require companionship of their own species are listed here on their own because they are suitable for interaction with members of the public but their companions are not.

Not all animals are available or suitable for your booking. Animals enclosures and accommodation pictures at: https://www.facebook.com/pg/AmazingAnimalEncounters/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1201784743203862

Martha the Tanuki

Martha is a type of wild dog from Asia. They are farmed in China, Russia and Europe for their fur. Martha lives in a large outdoor enclosure which provides her with a natural habitat, including access to open water so that she can behave in a natural way. Martha came from another animal handler who had to move out of her home and disperse her animal collection
