Welcome to Octagon Wildlife Sanctuary
Our Mission: To provide a safe haven for exotic zoo type animals and to ensure they live out their lives in a healthy, stress free, clean and loving environment.
We are a forever home for no longer needed or wanted, and sometimes mistreated exotic animals, since 1978. The continued support from our volunteers, the community, and donations from visitors like you, we are able to continue our mission.

Octagon Wildlife Sanctuary is located on Horseshoe Road in Punta Gorda, FL just west of State Road 31. Visit the 'Directions' link located above for the best driving routes. Octagon is not affiliated with any other organization in the state of Florida or otherwise. The board of directors are unpaid volunteers as are all the people who care for the animals, the sanctuary grounds and many other daily operations.
All the animals in our care reside here. To minimize the stress on the animals and ensure their safety at all times, we no longer bring any of our animals to locations or events for promotional purposes.
Families, seniors, individuals - We are wheelchair accessible and have beverages available for purchase. There are multiple areas to sit, Please check the weather before you come and dress appropriately!
