If you're ever in Dunalp . . .

[Le Taz Hot]

Dunlap is actually on the way to Kings Canyon NP off of Hwy. 180. There is a wild cat compound there. You can see the sign on the East side of the Hwy., but as far as I know, there's only one sign so you have to keep your eyes open. I have yet to stop there but I've spoken to others who have who tell me it was a fascinating place.

From the website:

Project Survival's Cat Haven is an innovative park dedicated to the preservation of wild cats. It specializes in education and is engaged in both captive and range country conservation.

Founded in 1993 with the purchase of 100 scenic acres just west of King's Canyon National Park the Cat Haven offers guided tours of some of the rarest cats in the world. It also promotes grass-root level support for range country conservation through Project Survival, a 501 (c) (3) organization.

This is a non-profit group that relies solely on donations.
Admission is $9.00 for adults
Children 5-12: $6.00
Seniors 62 and over: $7.50
