NEWS

Urban Safari Rescue Society was conceived from Cinemazoo Animal Agency, which has been operating since 1988. In 2007 Gary Oliver realized it was more important to educate people and conserve animals in this changing world. So he began Urban Safari.

Urban Safari Rescue Society is dedicated to the rescue, care and maintenance of exotic and other animals, and to provide education through lectures, in-house courses and outreach programs for adults and children, using exotic animals rescued from the pet trade industry, illegal breeders, smugglers, and with those animals who have been abandoned or neglected.

2010 promises to be another tough year for Urban Safari Rescue Society. In the first part of the year we took in many unwanted animals, doubling the amount of animals we have at the rescue society today. Because of this we have had to put out numerous costs for feeding and care.

Now due to rising costs, the economy and other occurrences we are struggling to keep giving the kind of care these animals need.

We would like to continue to educate people on these animals and their proper place on this planet but donations are needed to give these unwanted animals the food, care and shelter they deserve.

So we are sending out a heart felt plea for donations of any kind whether it, be money or products, such as food, water bottles, cages, office equipment or supplies, land Etc.

Every donation will be greatly appreciated and will receive a tax receipt for your generosity.

Please find it in your heart to donate now and make a difference, so we can continue to provide for these unwanted animals, and education for our children and their future.

 

Our goal is to develop a facility dedicated to education for future generation and preservation of wildlife worldwide.

For how you can help please contact us at 604-299-6963 or email us @ zoo@shawbiz.ca

Recent Media Coverage of Urban Safari Rescue Society

Formerly our work was carried out by Cinemazoo Animal Agency.  After registering ourselves as a Registered Charity, non-profit agency, under Urban Safari Rescue Society in 2007, we are pleased to be able to expand on and continue our efforts.

As we are newly created, our media coverage will include events under Cinemazoo.  Watch for our own media coverage over this next year as we become more visible in the Lower Mainland under the new name!

  • E-mail:  From staff regarding a classroom presentation done in May 2008, "...(this) boy is not a communicator, and does not get any joy out of school at all... This is a Big Deal!" and from the parent "(the boy) told me all sorts of interesting things all the way home - he hasn't told me so much about a day at school ever... in 3 years!!!
