Safari Lake Geneva, Lake Geneva

Within the confines of its preserve-style park, Safari Lake Geneva provides a home for exotic animals from six continents. Unlike a zoo, however, it also provides guests with an up close (and sometimes personal) look at these majestic beasts via engaging safari-style park tours. Read on to learn more:

• Animals from far...: On any given trip to Safari Lake Geneva, you're likely to encounter an animal you've never seen before. The park's species range from majestic scimitar-horned oryx and blackbuck antelope, to comical camels and ostriches and even the mighty American bison.

• ...and near: Of course, the park also welcomes plenty of Wisconsin wildlife, as well. Tour groups have reported sightings of many native species, including red-tailed hawks, turkey vultures, great egrets, great blue herons, and sandhill cranes.
