Are you an animal lover yourself, or do you have kids that are fond of the feathered and furry? We have no shortage of farms and wildlife attractions in Georgia… after all, we’re well-known for our agricultural industry, and Atlanta is home to one of the best aquariums and the best zoos in the country. Another lesser-known spot that’s also a blast for the whole family is the Yellow River Wildlife Sanctuary in Lilburn, GA. You may know it by its former name, the Yellow River Game Ranch, but it’s now under new ownership and has been completely renovated to provide the best possible habitat for the animals that live here. It’s now one of the best wildlife sanctuaries near Atlanta and such a great trip to take with the whole family. Check it out:
