S.A.F.E. Sanctuary's
Welcome to Saving Animals for Everyone, also known as S.A.F.E. Sanctuary.
We are an animal sanctuary located in Anthony, Florida, just 15 miles north of Ocala. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing a safe haven for animals. We have a Class 3 License issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, which enables us to take in many types of animals: domestic, farm, and exotic, including small primates.
The Sanctuary provides a place for animals to live that are in need of a home. Many animals come to us because of unfortunate circumstances - some have been lost or abandoned, or just no longer wanted. We work with a number of state and local organizations, including animal welfare agencies, to make sure that animals they are unable to shelter or place are given a home.
We are also contacted by owners when they are unable to maintain the level of care the animals needs, due to relocation, financial, or health reasons. In rare cases, the animal may require special handling by a professional. In most cases, the owners want to make sure that good care is provided to the animal.
If the Sanctuary is unable to take in the animal, we will work with the owner to find another facility that is able to help.
Please contact us for more information regarding our facilities.

| Memorial Pond Complete | 
Here is our new refurbished pond. It is surrounded by Florida fieldstone and has a lovely waterfall in the corner. The pond has always been a focal point of the sanctuary and our aim is to create a place of tranquility and contemplation. We are now ready to begin landscaping in preparation of our Memorial Wall and Wall of Friends Project. Ronnie Gaylord, Jr. of G.P. Masonry of Ocala, a family owned and operated business since 1982, is kindly donating his time in the construction of our Memorial Wall and Wall of Friends. We are very grateful to Ronnie, Gramps and All for taking on this very special project, please click here.

| One Day Jungle Pass! |
Presenting....
S.A.F.E. Sanctuary's
One Day Jungle Pass!
Put on your safari clothes and join us for a 'behind the scenes' look at S.A.F.E. Sanctuary!
You'll start off with a tour of our facility, and then have a chance to get some hands-on experience when you help us with our morning feeding (...or feeding frenzy, sometimes)! Then you will have access to our animals for a photography session. You'll work up an appetite working at S.A.F.E. and photographing the wildlife, so we'll serve you a catered lunch for two on our patio!
You get a full day for two at the Sanctuary for just $100.00! This is a great way for you to get an idea of what it is like working at an animal sanctuary and working with some exotic animals.
A One Day Jungle Pass is a great gift for yourself, your favorite animal lover, or for someone who is thinking about a career working with animals. The Jungle Pass is available to children under 18 if they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. It's also a fun way to spend the day with your significant other or best friend. For more information or for reservations, please call us at (352) 671-6797.
