Meat Donations
We need your help. Our tigers and lioness eat large amounts of meat daily, and we rely on meat donations to feed them throughout the year. Whether you are cleaning out your freezer or own a business that has uneaten and uncooked meat you don’t need, please donate your meat to us instead of throwing it away. We accept meat and/or bones. It has to be raw and unseasoned. Some acceptable meat varieties include; chicken, beef, pork, fish, bison, deer, elk and turkey. It CAN NOT be rotten but freezer burnt is fine. Food donations are tax deductible. Crown Ridge is willing to pick up your donations or you can drop them off at the Tiger Sanctuary, Monday - Sunday 8AM-4PM. Please call ahead. Jeri Meeker (573) 330-7334, (573) 883-9909 or jmeeker@crown-ridge.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
