A
Imagine a world with no more wild animals: no elephants, no tigers or lions. To some people, that thought is too terrible for words. So they are doing something about it. Tiffany Soechting is one of them.
Being among wild animals—feeding them and caring for them—is all Tiffany Soechting has wanted to do with her life. And that is exactly what she does!
Soechting is the human “mother” to the 500 animals that live on her family wildlife farm in San Antonio. Besides her animal caring, Soechting also holds monthly classes, where she teaches school children about the animals.
Soechting also opens the farm to the public. Visitors can not only learn about the animals, but also get close to them. And the animals are not against that. For them, people are part of their natural environment.
The farm is part conservation area, part educational centre and part animal park. As the animals walk peacefully around the grounds, it is easy for them to forget that San Antonio, a busy city, is just a few minutes away.
