It takes an enormous amount of trust with your animals to be able to feed a 500 pound big cat by hand, but it's just another day in the park for the dedicated staff at the Lion Habitat Ranch.

Originally opened as a rehabilitation and "retirement" home for MGM show lions, the Ranch, located in Henderson, NV just outside of Las Vegas, is now home to more than 40 lions and other animals, cared for by a wonderful, passionate staff. Always a treat to visit this great facility!
