Wait...Who ARE WE?

Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge is a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing abandoned, abused, and neglected big cats, primarily focusing on tigers, lions, cougars, bobcats, leopards, and big cat hybrids.

The Refuge's mission is focused on not only providing a forever home to big cats in need but also on solving the problems that cause these animals to require help in the first place.

This is done through education and advocacy initiatives. Turpentine Creek is open to the public and works with schools and organizations nationwide to educate everyone at every age about the plights big cats face in captivity. They are a prominent voice in support of the Big Cat Public Safety Act, a bill that restricts what can be done with big cats in captivity, leading to less animal abuse and an increase of protection of law enforcement, EMTs, and the public, who are often most affected by a big cat attack or escape.

Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge is proudly accredited by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries and is a founding member of the Big Cat Sanctuary Alliance.


Who We Aren't

No, we are NOT that guy with the tigers who recently had a Netflix special made about him.

We do NOT: buy, sell, breed, or trade animals

When an animal comes here, they are here for life.

Places (like us) that are not part of a Species Survival Program should never breed exotic animals. Sadly, places (like circuses, private dealers, and "pay-to-play" schemes do. Those places are often where we rescue animals from at the request of law enforcement and the courts; their animals almost always have health problems stemming from inbreeding, improper care, over-breeding, and being ripped away from their mothers too quickly.
