We're looking for our next interns!

Are you or someone you know seeking to gain real-life experience in animal care? NTS offers educational opportunities to learn about animal husbandry, public education, sanctuary management and more! We are looking for applicants interested in our summer internship now. There are limited positions to ensure each intern has a valuable learning experience and receives the one-on-one training necessary to develop into a professional in the field. Full-time commitment is necessary for 3 or 6 month programs with available on site housing if needed. Part time programs are arranged on a case-by case basis depending on circumstances. We are also looking for interns interested in graphic design, marketing, and hospitality.

Our summer applicant deadline will be March 1st. Preference will be given to all applications received prior to deadlines, however any applications received after the deadline may be considered if positions are still open. We look forward to hearing from you!

Applications are Available on our Website!

Volunteers will be able to help with decorating enrichment items, landscaping, domestic animal help, and much more! We will be having our next volunteer orientation next month on February 9th at 11am and 3pm! email us at stripes@nationaltigersanctuary.org to RSVP

New Residents!

Yes, that's right 2019 has just begun and NTS has already rescued 4 new residents! These are of the slithering variety that were rescued from an overcrowded living situation. We look forward to being able to provide these snakes with individual care and attention they needed to stay healthy and happy. Welcome home Severus George, a Granite Burmese Python ; Anduin, the Columbian Ghost Boa; Willie and Striker, both Red-tailed Boa Constrictors. George the python is the smallest of the rescues as a 2018 hatch-ling but has potential to out-grow all our other snake residents at an upward of 20ft long!

Wanted: Forever homes!

We have 6 domestic cats up for adoption and we would love to see them make it to their forever home! A small adoption fee of $50 includes up to date vaccines, spays, neuters, and microchips! Email us for an adoption application today to inquire about bringing a new feline friend into your family! They are all good with other cats, people and even dogs with some patience.

Cat of the Month

Niara is the cat of the month for January, her birthday month! She is now 8 years old. This sweet girl arrived back in 2013 along with Leo, Etana, Matula, and Judah. In 2016, she unexpectedly became the mother of 4 after Leo somehow reversed a vasectomy! Niara now lives next door to her kids: Afton, Kiara, Nala, and Raffiel. She loves to visit with feeding tours and sometimes impersonates Harry the tiger by standing up to get her snacks! Adopt Niara today and receive an adoption certificate, Niara's picture, an NTS logo t-shirt, and an NTS car decal.
