Are you aware there is a real life wildlife sanctary right here in our area?  Carnivore Preservation Trust (CPT) is a 55 acre site based in Pittsboro and houses various tiger, snow leopards, and jaguars to name just a few.  How do I know of this extraordinary location?  I have enjoyed a tour of the property; viewing many of the animals in their natural habitat.

The tour is reasonably priced; required you to walk a very 'natural' path and is guided for your and the animals satey.  It is beyond description to be in such close proximity to such creatures that some have traveled far and wide to see in person.

The first step is to view their website http://www.cptigers.org/.  The site is extremely informative; take a moment to view the 'Meet the Animals' http://www.cptigers.org/animals/default.asp.  There you will find descriptions and photos that will surely surprise you!

Once you visit, take a moment to add your thoughts here.  Again, our area is so amazing, if for no other reason, that for facilities such as CPT that are right in our backyard.
