Little Ponderosa Zoo and Rescue

Little Ponderosa Zoo and Rescue was originally founded as a zoo. It was not long before we started getting calls from people asking us if we would give their exotic pet a home because they could no longer care for it. Quickly we saw the need for an exotic animal rescue and the process to become a recue began.We are now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We rescue exotic animals from across the United States. Approximately 98% of our animals are rescues. We work diligently to provide a safe, loving, forever home for them. The number of exotic animals in desperate need of a home is growing daily. *Each of our rescues has their own story. Many times people get exotic animals as pets and realize that they cannot meet the animal's needs. Sadly these animals are dropped off at shelters and cannot be put up for adoption. If we do not pick the animals up they are euthanized. Some animals are neglected, abused, or abandoned. Whatever the reason, we are here to help the exotic animals!You can help these animals by making a donation to them! No donation is too small. You can donate in several different ways. Monthly donations, one time donations, or donate items to Little Ponderosa Zoo and Rescue. All donations go to help cover the cost of food, shelters, enclosures, medicine, and much more. Donations are 100% tax deductible. Please help an exotic animal and donate today!
