Animal encounters are a private experience & will consist of the paying group only. Only paying participants will be allowed in the enclosure. Non-registered friends & family visiting the farm are welcome to watch & take pictures from outside of the exhibit.
Please Note: At Romelia Farms Wildlife Preserve, we give our animals the choice to participate in these interactive experiences with our guests. All encounters are dependent upon the animal. Our animals must be respected, & as such, we reserve the right to end the encounter at any time for disruptive behavior.
Participants may have the opportunity to gently touch our sloth & anteater depending on the animal?s behavior. However, touching is not guaranteed. For the safety of our guests & animals, holding a sloth is not permitted.
