Carole Baskin’s Summary

MY VISION STATEMENT

A world where the animals we share it with are treated with respect and caring and where habitat is preserved to insure the indefinite future survival of these wonderful gifts of nature. In creating such a world, we hope the same principles of respect and caring will carry over to the way humans treat each other.

MY MISSION STATEMENT

To provide the best home we can for the animals in our care and to reduce the number of cats that suffer the fate of abuse, abandonment or extinction by teaching people about the plight of the cats, both in the wild and in captivity, and how they can help through their behavior and support of better laws to protect the cats.

Carole Baskin’s Specialties:

Providing the best permanent care possible to more than 100 lions, tigers, bobcats and other wild cats and the commitment to end the abuses that cause so many of these magnificent creatures to be in need of shelter.
