On the east side of Monterey County near Salinas, see more than one hundred exotic animals and birds, all lovingly trained for use in films and television. Elephants, giraffes, bears, cheetahs, tropical birds, snakes, alligators, and dozens more cretures, including Josef, the live model for the Lion King. The animals are very friendly.
Come for a tour, or stay overnight in a canvas-walled safari cabin.
