Tony was absolutely such a caring and knowledgeable man he was friendly and had so many special connections with the animals. Charles was great too!! He really cares that makes all the difference

This Sanctuary was one of the coolest places my husband and I visited while traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday. The animals are obviously very happy and very well cared for. Despite the time of year, we saw many active animals and got some great pictures! The staff obviously love what they do and were so kind and friendly as well. We will definitely pay a visit again in the future!

Victoria gave my wife and I a thoroughly enjoyable, knowledgeable, and unforgettable tour. She answered all of our questions and was very patient with us. We highly recommend Yellowstone Wildlife Sanctuary to both adults and children. Tours are available for additional fee, but well worth it

Do not let the bad reviews deter you! I would definelty pay the little extra for a tour, we had an amazing time learning about the animals from our guide, Victoria. She was very informational and you can tell they care deeply for the animals here! Long drive from Bozeman, but completely worth it!

Very nice that they’re trying to care for these animals but not a great place to visit. Pretty expensive admission fee for what it is. They keep the animals in enclosures that are too small for their size and activity level… not the best. Overall, disappointing.

The gentleman in the office was very informative and fun to talk to. It was a very hot day so a few of the animals (bobcat, foxes, etc) were hiding out somewhere. I see others have complained about the enclosure sizes for a couple of the animals. I do agree that the enclosures could be bigger, but I think a lot of them have open areas further back. It's also worth noting that these are rescues, unable to return to the wild. This is not a zoo situation, and even while we were there the animals were being fed and watered. Plus, from what the gentlemen at the front told me, they are working on the expanding the current facilities. Hence the admission fee.
