I called this zoo about their awful, inhumane conditions. The woman answered and yelled at me, hung up on me twice, and said "I hope you never have children." I'm not kidding. She was as horrendous as the conditions the animals live in! No surprise there. They need to retired all their animals to reputable sanctuaries. I was appalled to learn of the conditions endured by these animals—including a bear without water/adequate shelter, confined to a tiny concrete slab surrounded by her own poop.

It's obvious that Deer Haven Mini Zoo cannot meet the animals' needs and that they deserve to live in a true sanctuary.

This facility claims an A+ rating from the BBB but the BBB says it has NOT rated this place. Also, there is a national petition online currently to get the owners to release their animals to a proper sanctuary because they do not take proper care of the animals. Many customers who went to the 'zoo' have also noted in various online sites that the animals appeared not to be treated well. I am also going to contact the local county with jurisdiction in animal welfare to investigate this place
