Primates, Predators and More
There is an incredible variety of animals at the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary in Sandown. Marvel at the tigers, lions, lynx, lemurs, monkeys, meerkats, reptiles and many more species. The sanctuary is a unique home that allows rescued animals to flourish in a caring environment. The sanctuary hopes to inspire people to take positive action to protect our planet and the animals we share it with.
The sanctuary animal carers have their own specific sections, allowing them to get to know the personalities of the animals in their care exceptionally well. Explore this section to learn more about our animals and their unique stories and characters.
