Adopt an Animal
At the ARK 2000 sanctuary, rescued and retired wild animals find a true refuge. Carefully designed environments encourage behaviors that are natural to them and offer those who suffered past trauma and mistreatment a chance to recover.
By adopting one or more of the animals we care for, or gifting an adoption to an animal lover in your life, you help support their care. Please note that PAWS’ adoptions are symbolic and do not involve physical custody of the animals.
