We do not allow pets
except for service animals.
Please do not feed the
animals. Center animals are on special diets
and human food might cause health problems.
Exhibit barriers are for your protection. Do
not climb, stand on, or breach barriers or
railings.
Help us keep the
animals healthy. Please do not throw
anything into an animal’s exhibit.
Please keep the Center clean by placing all
litter in the provided trash and recycling
receptacles.
There is no smoking on
the Wildlife Center grounds, picnic areas,
or playground.
Alcoholic beverages are not allowed on
Center grounds.
Grills and outdoor
cookers are not allowed during rental of the
Center facilities.
Some Wildlife Center exhibits allow for the
handling of animals. Please follow posted
handling instructions, and do not remove
animals from their exhibits.
Possession of raptor
feathers without a permit is a federal
offense. Please do not remove any shed
feathers from the Center property. Doing so
could constitute fines or imprisonment as
outlined by the Migratory Bird Act.
Do not run or roughhouse on the Center
walkways. Loud noises could startle the
animals in their exhibits.
All children must be
accompanied by an adult at all times.
For your safety and to help preserve the
valuable plant and tree collection, please
stay on the walkways.
The Center does not
participate in wildlife rehabilitation.
Please do not bring injured, orphaned, or
nuisance animals to the Wildlife Center.
Please contact your local Georgia Department
of Natural Resources office.
The Wildlife Center does have free-roaming
animals. Please do not poke at the animals,
throw objects in the animal areas or harass
the animals. These objects are harmful and
may cause serious medical problems.
Visitors are
encouraged to take photographs for their
personal use and to share their memories
with family and friends.
In areas where there is
direct contact with animals, it is very
important that visitors use the hand
sanitizers placed at these areas. This will
help protect you and our animals from
illness.
