About Wild Animal Safari Park

Driven by their vision and love of animals, Ron Snider and his wife, Vivian, founded Wild Animal Safari Park, formerly Pine Mountain Wild Animal Park, over 14 years ago. The 200-acre park, located within the 500-acre parcel purchased by GFAM, contains more than 1,700 animals. The park's jungle of animals come from around the globe, including Africa, India, Australia, Europe, South America and North America, every continent except Antarctica. Unlike a zoo, where animals are confined in small, man-made quarters, most of the animals at the park roam freely throughout its countryside, socializing, grazing and watering as they would in their original environments. Wild Animal Safari is located within an easily accessible one-hour drive time from Atlanta and Macon, Georgia, as well as Montgomery and Birmingham, Alabama.
