West Palm Beach
With entry by reservation only, this wildlife sanctuary takes unwanted exotics and treats dozens of native animals that are sick or injured and then releases them back to the wild. On the two-hour guided tour you'll get to see white tigers, panthers and barred owls all from 3ft away. Children under five are not permitted.
The sanctuary is 16 miles northwest of Clematis St, downtown West Palm Beach.
