Educational Animal Encounters
Ringtail Ranch Lemur Rescue is first and foremost a lemur sanctuary designed and managed for the well being of our lemurs, who are endangered species. We are a private facility and not open to the general public for that reason. Although we allow close up encounters for educational purposes, we are NOT a petting zoo. We do not have an age restriction for our encounters; however, we do caution
the animals can be extremely loud and frighten young children. We are currently offering the following educational programs:
Zoo Crew Group encounters on Sundays @ 2 & 4pm $15 per person ALL ages inside our climate controlled lemur barn.
Zoo Crew Individual/Private encounters are by appointment only all other days minimum charge $100 includes up to 4 people, additional guests can be added for $25 per person ALL ages inside our climate controlled lemur barn.
Zoo Crew To You encounters prices start from $250 depending on program location, guests and animals included.
Reservations must be made in advance and purchase is required at the time of reservation.
For the protection of our lemurs and safety of our guests contact with the lemurs is limited, we do have hands on interaction with the kangaroos, reptile and rabbits. Please call or text 806-781-1076 to schedule reservation(s). We accept CashApp, Venmo, and Paypal all purchases are final.
