As Southern California’s only Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries-accredited facility, Lions Tigers & Bears provides a lifelong home to more than 60 rescued animals, including lions, tigers, bears, and other exotic species. These animals have been saved from inhumane conditions in roadside zoos, circuses, private ownership, and the exotic pet trade.
“We’re excited to welcome the San Diego community to Lions Tigers & Bears,” said Bobbi Brink, founder and director. “We are here to educate the public about the dangers of the exotic animal trade and the urgent need to rescue animals living in dire conditions. Every visit helps raise awareness and supports real change for animals in need.”
This summer, the sanctuary is offering a variety of engaging experiences that give guests an inside look at the lives of rescued animals and the larger issues that affect them in both captivity and the wild.
Educational Experiences for Children and Families
From educational field trips to the Member-for-a-Day program, children and their guardians or parents will participate in meaningful learning experiences centered on wildlife rescue and humane animal care. Each child receives an interactive activity card designed to guide them through the sanctuary while reinforcing key lessons about compassion, respect, and responsible stewardship. Completed cards can be redeemed for some fun stickers!
Guided Educational Visits
Guests are invited to join guided walking visits through the sanctuary, where they’ll meet rescued animals, hear their powerful rescue stories, and witness firsthand the transformative care they now receive. Each tour is led by a knowledgeable guide, offering insights into the animals’ journeys and the broader issues affecting wildlife today. To learn more, click here.
