Tigers in need was built in Southern Oklahoma in 1999, starting out as a small refuge to house unwanted big cats. Today it has grown into one of the largest projects in the country.

With the help of people all over the world, we have now on site over 150 big cats living out their lives in comfort and peace.

Our mission is to educate the public about the danger of owning exotics that grow to an unwanted size, to help preserve their environment, and to take in and house unwanted exotic animals that have been in captivity. And to educate and help those who have exotic’s to better care for their animals so they don’t become unwanted.

Come to the Fair and see an education show about the Tigers, Tiger Cubs, and other animals at the fair. (Times listed below). Visit the Big Cats all day everyday of the fair!
