Animal Edutainment's Mission
(1) Reach as many students, teachers, parents and the general public, as possible, with our unique brand of professional live wildlife education programs. To clear-up misconceptions about and to foster a healthy respect of, and responsibility for all living creatures with which we share the planet. |
| (2) To safely provide the public with unique, professional, wildlife education experience. To clearly extend the message that wild and or exotic animals are not "pets". Any animal that is capable of living in the wild, should live in the wild. |
| (3) To provide the best quality of life to all of the Animal Ambassadors in our care. |
Animal Edutainment's Philosophy
Animal Edutainment® Inc. a.k.a. Critterman Safari Guides, is a private not-for-profit wildlife education organization of college-trained, professional, wildlife handlers and educators. Not affiliated with, or to be confused with any other animal acts or programs in the state of Texas. |
| Animal Edutainment's primary concern as professional outreach educators that work with live Animal Ambassadors, is safety. For that reason, we choose not to include certain animal species in our programs. Species such as: big cats, large hoofstock, and apes (chimpanzees & orangutans). We employ experienced, professional animal handlers knowledgeable about the species with which we work. |
| Animal Edutainment strongly cautions anyone considering inviting an individual or group with animals (particularly big cats, primates, or large hoofstock) to their school, organization, home or event , check their permit status at www.aphis.usda.gov/ac or direct inquiries to ace@usda.gov Please also require a copy of the company's valid liability insurance. Remember just because the service is available, doesn't guarantee it is safe or even legal. Safety is Animal Edutainment's number one priority for our clientele. Please make it your as well. |
