Big Cat Encounter

Bengal tigers, African lions, and a mountain lion all call Nemacolin home. Each of our big cats were born in captivity, but they are still wild animals and treated as such.

During the Big Cat Encounter, you’ll be invited to engage with our trained wildlife keepers while learning about the various behavioral, intellectual, and enrichment training we share with the cats. You’ll hear insider information about their individualities, and you’ll be able to observe the carnal nature of these creatures during a feeding.
