Tiger World

Tiger World is a nonprofit wildlife preserve located in Rockwell, North Carolina, dedicated to the rescue and care of exotic animals in naturalistic habitats. The preserve is home to tigers, lions, African servals, sloths, and kangaroos, among other species, and offers guided VIP Safari Tours along with carnivore feeding demonstrations and special animal encounters such as the popular sloth meet-and-greet.

The facility is wheelchair accessible, offers wagon rentals for younger visitors, and provides birthday party packages, making it a welcoming destination for families.
