Big Cat Encounter
Bengal tigers, African lions, and a mountain lion all call Nemacolin home. Each of our big cats was born in captivity, and many of them are rescues who once lived in other places. Despite this, they are still wild animals and not pets of the resort.
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 personalities, and you’ll be able to observe the carnal nature of these creatures during a feeding.
If you’re having trouble deciding between the Lion Encounter and the Tiger Encounter, the Big Cat Encounter will be the perfect experience for you!
