Located on Untamed Mountain in Attalla, Alabama it is a must see for anyone visiting even close to this area. This sanctuary, Tigers for Tomorrow at Untamed Mountain, for animals relocated from Florida to Alabama after several hurricanes created havoc for their Florida facility. Plan to spend at least 2 hours and even more if you can visit during one of their special events which can include educational presentations about the animals there and how you can help. Take time to just watch the tigers, bears, lions, panthers, servals, and many more. Be sure to call ahead and schedule a guided tour.

Are you a big cat lover? Bear lover? Animal encounter lover? You must see Tigers for Tomorrow! I drove up on a misty/rainy Sunday and arrived late, around 3:30. I was greeted on the front deck of the gift shop by the very friendly proprietor Sue and a volunteer who was on her way out. Immediately I could tell how the visit was going to go. Great people here doing a great service to wonderful creatures. I entered the gift shop and paid, received my map and headed out on to the grounds. A camel and zebra were visible right away, and wicked friendly also. Being alone and late in the day, I skipped the petting zoo of little critters to move on to the big cats. Well, I had to stop and pet the goats that were talking to me at the fence as I walked by. Again, wicked friendly and interactive.So, just around the corner on the trail from the petting zoo is a LARGE fenced in structure that looks like you're about to enter Jurassic Park. It looks great. Strong and well maintained. As you walk thru the gate, there they are. I saw a tiger down the trail but noticed the wolf right next to me and stopped. Awesome. Just a few feet separate the people fence from the animal fence. All the animal fences looked strong enough and maintained well enough (I say this in response to another reviewer's concerns about the strength of the enclosures) to restrain the critters they were designed for. The animals seem happier than any I have seen at any park or zoo I have been to (over 100). They are more aware, and it's very cool. One tiger was obviously playing with me, pouncing back and forth as I walked by. I felt safe, but it was intimidating. There is no doubt that "in the wild" I would or could be food for them.The up close viewing of these wonderful animals reveals aspects that you don't get across the ravine at the zoo. You hear them breathe. You hear them purr and growl. You see the strength of their awesome muscles and feel their presence. There are so many lions and tigers it is overwhelmingForgive me for not naming every critter and what was awesome about it. Like the bear that stood up and talked to me then turned his back and rubbed it on the fence like he was wanting me to scratch his back. But there were just too many cool critters and the whole experience was awesome.Going back? Every chance I get. Spreading the word to everyone I know too. I hope to give some volunteer time or bring some supplies from their wish list soon. Please check out their website for what they are doing. They did not catch these animals to cage, they saved them from bad or unwanted situations. I didn't ask about their background. I enjoyed seeing them in their happy places now. The enclosures might not be huge, but the animals are happy. You can feel it.The staff and owners are true animal lovers. You will see. They are doing their best to provide great permanent homes for some furry friends in need. And they are doing a fantastic job.

My husband and I visited this place with our 4 month old daughter. It was a very fun experience, very clean environment, lots to see. All animals seemed pretty happy and content, cages were clean and well maintained. We got there when they were feeding the animals, and that was really cool. Walk ways are rocky and steep at times, but easy to navigate.

Just heard of TigersforTomorrow and decided to go check it out. Took my baby girl and my sister and her two little boys. The walkways around the animals were a little rocky, but we managed two strollers with little difficulty. Lots to see. The walking tour started with roosters, hawks, goats, pigs, and a peacock. There was a coin operated machine with food for the goats. A short walk down a hill and we were amongst tigers, foxes, bears, mountain lions, and African lions. The cages appeared well maintained and there were workers and volunteers everywhere. The cages are separated by a second fence about four feet from the cage to keep visitors from getting too close. It was really exciting seeing the big cats up close and we were never concerned that "they would get us." As soon as I got cell service, I started calling friends and family to make plans to come back ASAP. I am fortunate to live close to TigersforTomorrow and I plan to bring my kids, family, and friends again and again.

What a great attraction! We were planning our next trip before we even left the premises. We were so amazed by the great work this place does for animals that need a permanent home to retire to. We were so close to all of the animals, even the big cats, not like in city zoos where you're separated by a moat. The entire staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. This place is a hidden jewel. Well worth the admission fee.

Why, more people do not rave about this place is beyond my comprehension! I went this past Saturday with a girlfriend of mine and we had an amazing experience. We are already planning a trip back in February for the guided tour ( Which ALLOWS PHOTOS!) All the animals appeared to be well taken care of and in a much better mood than any other ZOO/ Wild Life Enclosure i have ever seen ( San Diego , NYC Zoo's) included. The cats were very active, constantly playing with there toys and even playing with us! It was really like watching an over sized house cat! Now, i can see where some people might feel a little nervous about the chain linked fence enclosures. When i first saw them i was a little uneasy myself, I think most people are use to seeing a Zoo's million dollar enclosures and when first seeing these chain link fences they might feel they are inadequate, but my friend and i walked around the refuge for almost 3 hours just watching the different animals and at no point did i feel like the animals enclosures were inadequate or that anyone was in danger. This place is a must visit for any true Wild Life Fan. You truly cannot get any closer to a Siberian tiger anywhere else!!! The focus of this refuge is to help save an endangered species and i am very thankful for there hard work and appreciative of them letting the public see it first hand. Lastly, I hope anyone reading this review will go check out this place! All of the money spent in the gift shop or that is donated, goes to feed those animals, so please give if you can!!

I'm writing this review from my parents standpoint (whom took my children ages 1-5). First of all I think most any form of ecological conservation is awesome! Hats off to these people who want to rescue and shelter these amazing exotics! However, after spending much of my life with exotics as well, I think they're too lenient with the cats. If those cats want out...they'll get out. The cages concern me somewhat and I don't think self guided tours are a good or wise choice. One of the tigers charged the fence and hit it head on trying to get at my middle child (whom was quietly walking with her grandparents). Also, I'm extremely confident that the presence of large native cats like 'mountain lions' that exist inside the confinds of this park; will more than likely draw other wild cats nearby 'out of the woods' and closer in to the park...which may not be a great idea for "unguided" tours. I think Tigers for tomorrow is an asset; so thankful for people who have such a giving heart! However I think the place may need some upgrades and revision before someone ends up on the 6 o'clock news. That's my opion! Have a blessed day!

Up close with rescued tigers, lions, bears, a panther, cougar, and others. These are all caged and unable to roam free, and are separated from visitors by two fences and maybe 5-8 feet. You are close enough to hear breathing, purrs and snores. The animals are clean, healthy and well cared for. No photographs allowed.

What a great place to visit and have a wonderful time. The owners and staff are terrific and they also educate the public. The animals are all cared for extremely well and look very happy. The opportunity to be able to get so close to these magnificent animals is awesome! Loved my time there and can't wait to go back!

Wonderful people doing wonderful work. So glad there are people out there putting the lives of these marvelous animals first!! Will go back as often as possible.

The owners of TFT are the most well educated people on wild animals that I have ever met. They take the very best of care to all their animals and it is a beautiful well kept facility on many many acres of land...safe, friendly and worth the drive from near and far to see these beautiful creatures. It is worth it.

Don't let the nice lady at the front fool you..amazing to see all the big animals but this one older staff was yelled at not only us but several people for so called to loud...or because one of the tigers was upset and roaring as we walked past the older staff yelled at us as if we had done some thing to him...amazing experience but mean and rude staff..

Beautiful animals! Very we'll kept. Took a private tour so we could learn where the animals came from and it was well worth it!

Located at 708 County Road 345, Attalla Alabama 35954 Phone 256-524-4150This is a nonprofit facility taking care of damaged and unwanted exotic animals.It’s primary purpose is to take in animals and provide them with care for the rest of their lives.It is located in a rural area on a hill side. It is a working facility and not a show place.When planning a visit call first for information such as days of operation. I suggest you get a private tour guide.Consider the weather and wear appropriate clothing. The paths are not paved and you will be on some hilly terrain so consider that when choosing footwear. Unless you have a guide picture taking is prohibited. Because cell phones all take pictures are prohibited. They should be kept in your vehicle or in your pocket. The reason these restrictions came because people were harassing the animals to get exciting pictures.There are few facilities at the park. There are porta potties. There is a gift shop. The animals are amazing but you really just see them unless you arrange for an escorted tour. You will learn the back story on each animal and see them in a much more intimate way. There are tigers, black bear and grisly, mountain lions, leopards, wolves, foxes, a hawk, great horned owl, peacocks, a camel, a zebra, African lions, a python, goats, a cow, sheep, chickens, a pig, and more.It will cost $12 adult. Children over 4 years $6. Private tours are more but really worth it. All the money goes for care of the animals. Again, call for details.

We happened to spot an article about Tigers for Tomorrow in a local magazine in our cabin and we are so glad we did. Took the private tour, which I would recommend to everyone since the staff is charming, knowledgable, and can bring out each animal's personality. A great afternoon for a great cause.
