Octagon is a 501c3 sanctuary that cares for unwanted or abandoned exotic animals. We are NOT a zoo. None of the animals have been taken out of the wild, but were born in captivity and owned privately without proper licensing, or well meaning people that could no longer care properly for the animal or used as a business. We are now open for Guided Tours only.
