WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE


Visit the Panther Ridge Conservation Center in Wellington to see the lifetime home for abandoned, abused or unwanted captive, exotic felines.  Here you can learn about the challenges these animals face in the wild, medical care, nutrition and the problems related to private ownership.  The animals roam within a 3-acre pen.  The Center is located at 14755 Palm Beach Point Boulevard in Wellington, FL 33414 - Phone: 561-795-8914.   

Group and Individual Tours can be arranged. The Center survives as a non-profit organization thanks to contributions from corporations, individual patrons and veterinary facilities.  Come on over on December 13th for hors d’oeuvres, entertainment, raffle prizes and take a photo with a baby jaguar at their fund raising event from 12-3 pm at LoLa Restaurant and Ultria Lounge, 16950 Jog Road, Delray Beach.  561-496-5652.
