Bucket list experience
2021年10月
Getting to touch and feed the elephants was so amazing. It was raining the day we went and we didn't care. They are such gentle giants and so smart. Our tour guide, Cristian, was very knowledgeable and likeable. Highly recommend it!

A must do
2021年9月 • 好友
A bucket list item. The demonstration part was very educational, I learned alot about Asian elephants. Baby Cameron kept us entertained too, lol. We then got to see the other elephants as we made our way to where we were able to feed & touch some elephants. There were 3 that came up to be fed. The staff was very nice & accomodating. It was an amazing tour, one I would love to do again. I highly recommend, we did the public tour.

Awe inspiring experience for any age birth to 100
2021年9月
This is an awesome experience for anyone from a toddler to 100. There is no impediment to anyone to see this in a comfortable way The only walking is about 100 feet from your car to the barn that is like an amphitheater. The tour guide gives a brief history. Then from there on everything is hands on and you can touch and clean large elephants. If you are a real animal enthusiast, this is the place to go. You can touch and visit elephants from the biggest to the baby with it's mamma. They have an elephant that paints foot prints and sprays paint out of his nostrils on t-shirts and you can buy the t-shirts. They have a great also have stepping stones painted by the elephants. They have a great gift shop. You take a ride in a wagon pulled by a tractor. There are hundreds of seats. You take this on a tour of the elephant habitat. You can feed the elephants and pet them. Multiple photo ops! The elephants are well taken care of. There produce is perfect and organic, better than what we eat. I can't believe that this isn't the premier tourist attraction.

Wonderful experience
2021年9月
Visited on 9/6/21. A wonderful experience. Guides provided information on the care of the elephants. Tour not rushed. Plenty of time to feed the elephants, take pictures and respond to questions. Obvious the guides loved their job and the elephants.

Private Birthday tour
2021年8月 • 夫妻情侣
We did the private tour and our guide (think his name was Tim) was very knowledgeable of the elephants and had a genuine love for them. They were running late for our appt time but called to let us know. This happens because they make sure everyone gets their experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We bathed the elephant, got a paint footprint, fed, and got a personal experience. Dorita entered with a happy birthday sign for my husband's 60th. The cabins were full so we didn't stay. Well worth the drive and $$.

Elephant Delivered Breakfast!
2021年8月 • 家庭
We spent the night in one of the 3 cabins, which included breakfast delivered by an elephant!!
I cannot speak to the tour experience, because all of the tours were booked. However, there is an observation area near the cabins, and they made sure a couple of the elephants and a keeper were there so we could see/visit/ask questions when we checked in. The keepers also happily take your phone, and take lots of pictures during the breakfast delivery; there was plenty of fruit provided in the cabin so the kids could feed the elephant, and the keepers were great about answering lots of questions then, too. There were five in our party, 2 9-year-olds and an 11-year-old, and grandma and grandpa. The cabin has a queen size bed, and a double on the bottom/single on the top bunk, each in separate bedrooms. There’s also a table for playing games and eating breakfast, a bathroom with a shower, and a kitchenette with a bar refrigerator and microwave. Breakfast was cereal or oatmeal or microwave egg scrambler’s (which were better than I thought they would be), plus orange juice, milk, mini muffins, etc. Whatever an elephant can pack in a picnic basket I guess! Oh yes, and a Keurig coffee pot with pods provided. The cabin was extremely clean.😁 There is no Wi-Fi or TV, so bring games to play for after the sun goes down, and it’s really dark out there… so bring a nightlight for the bedroom if you need it, and definitely one for the bathroom. Our 11 year old described it as “the best birthday ever!“ and grandma and grandpa were very pleased as well. We did use a Groupon, which saved us over $100, so look for one of those. We all want to return to take the tour on another trip, and the 11 year old is now trying to decide whether she wants to work at the Endangered Ark Foundation or at the zoo when she grows up!

Yes, there are elephants in Hugo
2021年7月 • 夫妻情侣
Had looked forward to seeing the elephants but the place was closed. Saw some at a distance. Not as much emphasis on Hugo’s circus history any more.

Current prices of tours

I am not sure. Purchased Elephant Experience and Cabin/breakfast package. Spent 500.00 for experience and 375.00 for cabin, breakfast. SO TOTALLY WORTH IT. Cabins are rustic, indoor plumbing BUT no TV. Games provided. Getting to spend 5hours playing with 4 teenage grandchildren was great. The experience was very educational and the kids were able to touch/feed the animals.
What are current prices for tours

I paid $500.00 for the Elephant Experience for 5 people. Myself and 4 grandkids. Spent well over 2hours meeting five elephants. Kids learned about the elephants. Muscles, trunks, foot care, teeth (really neat). Able to touch and feed the elephants. Handler was very knowledgeable and made it wonderful. Also got a painting elephant did as a momento.

Is it true that the owners of Endangered Ark also own the Carson & Barnes Circus located next to their property? Is it also true that the elephants at Endangered Ark are not rescued from life in the circus, but rather are the victims of the circus owned by the Endangered Ark owners? Is it also true that Endangered Ark engages in captive breeding of their elephants, and the elephants born in captivity there eventually end up as part of the performing act of the Carson and Barnes traveling circus? Is it true that there is undercover video on YouTube of a Carson and Barnes elephant trainer beating an elephant with a bull hook until it screams and yelling at another trainer to tear the elephant’s foot off?

My understanding is that the man who used to own the corner property owned a circus many, many years ago. He closed it down and opened an elephant sanctuary, which is Endangered Ark. We were there back in April and the animals appeared healthy and were well treated. All of the areas we observed were very clean. It sounds like you're picking a fight with all of your "is it true" questions.

How much does this activity cost? How much is the extra expense and what do you get for that? How long does this activity take? Are their facilities onsite? Restaurant?

It is a little pricey but so worth it. My total was $405.00. For that three of us got a private tour, got to feed some of them and bathe one of them. It was up close and personal. It was also pouring rain that day so we got to go in the barn and hang out for quite a while. The trainer was with us and answered all our questions. We felt like we had gotten a real treat. There is a small gift shop but the rest is mostly outdoors. No restaurant. If you chose the regular tours I am sure they are great. They have a trailer that takes you back in to the sanctuary where you can see them in their normal habitat. We thoroughly enjoyed it in spite of the rain. If you google it … not hard to find although it is in the country. They do have signs. Hours are listed on their website. On another note -- don't miss the Circus Café in Hugo...all circus themed...and the Mt Olivet Cemetery where many circus performers are buried. Lots of amazing headstones that are circus themed.

For those that did private tour with only 2 people, what was the cost without the extra's? Is it based on number of people doing that tour on that day?

俄克拉何马州埃德蒙26 条分享
A private group of less than 5 people is $300. If you would like to hand feed the elephants, it is an extra $10 per person. It is well worth the money. Plus the elephants love twinkies and snowballs! You are welcome to bring your own. If you want to bathe the elephant, that is an extra $25
Are there signs on the highway on the way there indicating where it is? I'm trying to surprise my husband and not tell him where we're going.
How much are elephant paintings?
Do they close in cold weather?
