Zambi Wildlife Retreat is a very unique animal welfare charity. We are a resort style retirement retreat for animals that have retired from the circus, entertainment industry, zoo breeding programs and private ownership. While our focus is on exotic animals (mainly big cats) we also offer shelter to domestic, farm and native wildlife needing a forever home. Managed by highly qualified staff and volunteers, Zambi Wildlife Retreat ensures the health, safety and dignity to all animals in our care. While Zambi is not open for public walk-ins, we do offer exclusive visits by appointment only. Zambi has been created for the animals peace, safety and comfort and because of this we will only open our doors 3 days a week for small groups of up to 6 persons only. Please visit our booking page for more information. . ZWR operates as a registered charity in NSW (Australia).
