So There’s An Animal Refuge In Arkansas. And It Might Be The Best Place Ever… Trust Me.
If you thought different species of animals could only live together in harmony in Disney films then you were wrong. Located in North Arkansas is the Rocky Ridge Refuge, a place of helping and healing for a wide variety of special needs animals that find their way there. Approximately 50-60 animals make their home there at any given time. The refuge was started by Janice Wolf, a former veterinarian technician who set up the shelter to rescue and raise wildlife and sick pets after long caring for animals.

Who knew such different species could get along and love each other. Selfless people like Janice remind me of how truly wonderful the world can be. You can find more about the Rocky Ridge Refuge on their Facebook and on their website.
