I have been to Dade City Wild Things on a number of occasions, and it has been a wonderful experience every time. The people who run Dade City Wild Things are wonderful people that love their animals and treat them with love and care, they are very knowledgeable about all the animals in their care and they are willing to share their knowledge with the people that go there, and I would recommend them to anyone. It is fun for the whole family young and old, and you come away with such wonderful memories to cherish for life..all these one star reviews are just animal activists trying to make a wonderful place look bad with lies. Dade City Wild Things love their animals and treats them with love and care. Don't believe the rubbish they write..

Dade City Wild Things Zoo is one of the most awesome and amazing places around! It’s a family run and family atmosphere where you can get up close and personal with the animals safely with different packages.
If you want the most memorable experience for you and your family you will take multiple trips to a most incredibly unique zoo! It’s where not only memories are made but knowledge is gained. You will be so educated about the different animals and learn how much care goes into providing a proper home for them. So many animals are becoming extinct but by learning about the different animals and where they come from may influence your future in wanting to take on a career of protecting them here or in their native countries.
The Stearns are the most caring and dedicated people I’ve known in a long time. They give everything of themselves to provide you with enjoyment, memories and knowledge.
Anyone rating this negatively is under the influence of bad propaganda and it just shows how many sad people out there are nothing but puppets. When someone can get you to write lies about a place where the majority of those comments are based on a place those people have never been, it shows the mindless individuals that are among the human race! That’s a FACT!!

Dade City's Wild is a very nice place and the animals are very well cared for and loved. You will have a great experience and leave with wonderful memories. The place is clean and they are regulated by state and federal agencies .They are being targeted by animal activists who pay for negative comments on line. I have visited quite a few times and always have a great time. The swims are awesome and the photos are really nice. Great place for a reasonable price.

Love Dade City Wild Things! The grounds and gardens are just beautiful and the animals are amazing. The tour guides are knowledgeable and often share the stories behind each animal. They offer the best summer camp my child has ever been to! We have also been to the “so-called competitor “ and would gladly go to Dade City Wild Things any day over going to Tampa. The owners at Dade City Wild Things are friendly and caring. They know each animal by name and more importantly, the animals know them! It is very clear that the animals love the owners and that they are well cared for.

Having been to Dade city wild Things 3 times I can only say what a great place and brilliant staff and Family. The animals are so well loved and looked after. You can tell they all love the animals by the way the animals react with their trainers.
The family home always has little babies in it, doing 2 hourly feeds night and day, that's not a job it's a lifestyle. We did things at the zoo I could only dream of doing. Seeing my dad's face when he got to play, Swim and feed a tiger cub was the best, awesome experience. A dream come true for him. I would recommend Dade city Wild things to everyone.

My boyfriend and I visited Dade City's Wild Things for the otter swim on 9/24/17 and had a wonderful experience with both the staff and animals. The otters were so adorable and Our photos came out great. Lots of cute things in their gift shop as well. We would love to go back soon! Don't believe the negative you read, sounds like all fake PETA attacks to me.

I wish I could rate zero starts, Dade City is a horrible place. They have to many animals in to little space and they abuse their animals. I have seen several stories where the have not given sick animals medical care. The staff is rude and ignorant and obviously uneducated about animals. And they allow people to touch the animals? Really? Any sensible person would know it is not right to touch a wild animal especially tigers even if they are just babies. Taking cubs away from there mom is very stressful for both and can be life threatening when they don't have there mothers milk. Not to mention they have taken cubs away from their mom PERMANENTLY just after they have been born. These people do not care about the well being of the animals, they don't care if they are sick or stressed or on the verge of death. All they want is money. Please do not visit this horrible place, if nobody is giving them money they will close down and the animals will go to much needed sanctuarys and get proper medical care and maybe be able to enjoy life for once and not be in a hell hole their entire life.

This place is awesome! We were there last weekend and we're amazed at the negative reviews we read. We swam with Bubba and played with an otter, anteater and a gibbon. The staff was great and very informative. The animals were happy and well cared for. We will definitely come back here and recommend this place to all animal lovers!

Don't support animal abuse, people. The animals are in deplorable conditions and live in pathetically small cages. Baby animals are taken away from their mothers right after they're born and are forced to interact with people. They also charge people $300 or more. Don't go here. Go to a real zoo or an animal sanctuary.
Stop exploiting these gorgeous creatures for profit. Actually go out and help put an end to this. I don't work for PETA. I'm just an animal lover who can't stand to see animals in pain.

We had the most amazing time. They were able to accommodate us and our 3 kids. We all felt as if we were the only ones there. The staff was funny, smart and very informative and generous to us with their time, answering many questions. We noticed they are in the process of expanding and none of this is cheap. They are a not for profit zoo and I think everyone (especially complainers) should start donating money to help and be grateful for a unique experience that we will never forget! And for 25.00 who cares of your pictures are crooked?!

I took my wife yesterday for her birthday and the experience was positive. It was well organized and the animals seemed like they were well taken care of. For the people posting negative reviews you should actually GO to to the place before you pass judgement.. it was fine

Customer service is horrible when it comes to managers and employees informing customers about policies. I get there number from a coworker and call to set up a reservation and they charge your card and never tell you about a "no refund policy." So a family emergency comes up to where I wouldn't be able to make the reservation, and then the military is transferring me to San Diego, CA in a month, so I ask for a refund and then now I get told about a no refund policy. So you have no problem not telling people prior to charging their account but once you have their money you tell them that there are no refunds. Then when you try to talk to a manager and one is never there and you are told that they will call you back, good luck with that because it is not true. Then the employee wants to be a smart butt by saying it's posted everywhere, well guess what when you get the number from someone and call directly you don't see any posts. I didn't have a sticky note on my phone informing me before I called. Your employees need to inform customers about policies prior to taking their money so they can make a decision as to if they want to continue. I highly recommend not dealing with these crooks.

If I could give this less than 1 star I definitely would. This place is awful! I paid an obscene amount of money to take my parents to pet a cub we were only given 20 minutes and most of that was spent starring at the "trainer" feeding the cub or doing other things you also can't take any pictures, but their "photographer" (basically a 12 year old with a camera and no knowledge how to use it) takes a lot - or so I was told. In the end I received about 100 photos, most completely over or under exposed out of focus cutting off parts of people or the cub in the photo All of this on top of the fact that you aren't allowed to look at anything else And I'm guessing that's because of the horrible conditions the animals are kept in. The only other animal I saw was a white tiger and it was in the smallest cage ever pacing back and forth
This is just not a good place no respect for the animals, which is most important and they are ripping people off every single day. So sad that I ever thought this was a good place to go. Never again.
