Animal Ed.ventures Sanctuary is a beautiful peace park located in Coats, NC that honors nature, celebrates diversity, and provides a respite for both animals and the human spirit.

We practice and promote a mindful, loving, and harmonic connection to the earth, her creatures, and each other. Our mission is to broaden the horizons of people from all walks of life through the meeting of our rescued and re-homed animal ambassadors that represent places all around the world. By bringing to life areas like Australia, Africa, and the rain forests of South America, we hope to instill the feelings of wonder and awe that we believe will be the catalyst for encouraging our society to preserve the beautiful works of Mother Nature and her habitats worldwide. Let us never forget that we are all ONE.

Home to more than 60 species in central North Carolina, Animal Ed.Ventures is a non-profit sanctuary. Join us for guided tours, family events, field trips, and unique summer camps.
