Welcome to Nature Joe’s Tiki Outpost: a one-of-a-kind rescue space for reptiles, amphibians, birds, and other wild companions.
Very soon, you and your friends and family will be able to visit, celebrate special events, and hang out with Nature Joe’s amazing animal crew.
But first, Nature Joe needs your help to finish building the animal habitats and support facilities that make it possible. Your contribution helps bring this dream to life and comes with one-of-a-kind rewards.
Once open, the Tiki Outpost will offer private tours, overnight stays, and hands-on volunteer opportunities with the animals.
Help us get there.
