This is a rehabilitation center for animals and a group home for children up to 18 years old.
The non-profit facility is home to over 1,000 animals and is licensed by the State of Georgia to provide residential care for up to 24 children.
The wildlife from the rehabilitation center and the children from the Childrens Care Home play a vital role for each other. The children participate in "pet therapy," nurturing the baby wildlife as the animals are rehabilitated in hopes of eventually being returned to their natural habitat.
This is important because many of the children have been abused or abandoned and may have a hard time relating to people. They’re able to learn to care for the animals that, in turn, are receiving much needed affection and attention.
There are approximately 1,000 exotic, wildlife and domestic animals, and over 100 different species of animals. OPEN Tuesday through Saturday. Animal Habit is open from 12noon until 3pm EST. The welcome center and picnic area are open from 9am-4pm. All are open during these hours weather permitting.
Free admission and parking. However donations are greatly appreciated. |
