About Us

Who We Are

Come discover, learn, and make a difference with us!

At the Tampa Bay Rescues Discovery Center, we are passionate about educating our visitors on the importance of wildlife preservation and supporting local animal rescues. Many of the exotic animals you’ll encounter are pet surrenders, as we operate as an amnesty rescue. Our mission is to provide a fun and engaging environment where families can learn, interact with rescued animals, and contribute to the conservation of our natural world.
