COVID-19 NOTICE: We’re open as scheduled here at Wild Adventures and the team is committed to providing a safe and memorable experience for guests. We take cleanliness and hygiene seriously all-year round but have recently ramped-up efforts to help prevent the spread of germs. That means, twenty-six (26) additional hand-sanitation stations throughout the park, rigorous and high-frequency deep cleaning of commonly touched surfaces and increased hygiene signage in public and team member areas. We’re diligently following guidelines from the CDC on prevention, and strongly encourage guests to do the same prior to visiting.
Sulcata tortoises are one of the largest tortoise species in the world and the largest mainland tortoise. They get their name from the spurs on their hind legs.
