The Lion Habitat Ranch is located in Henderson at 382 Bruner Avenue. It is home to more than 40 animals, including a giraffe, wild birds, and lions. However, these aren't just any lions.
The sanctuary is home to the world famous original MGM lions and their descendants. The lions were previously on exhibit at the MGM Grand's lion habitat. When the exhibit closed in 2011, the lions were brought to live together here.
At the ranch, you get a one-of-a-kind experience that you just can't get at a zoo. They offer a behind the scenes tour of the facilities where you can learn about how they take care of the animals. You'll even have an opportunity to hand feed some of the animals.
The owner, Keith Evans, has been working with large cats since 1970. The sanctuary was born out of his love for protecting and caring for these wonderful creatures.
The sanctuary is dedicated to protecting this beautiful animal species from further environmental harm by advocating for charities like Campaign Against Canned Hunting and SanWild.
