7. Giving jailbirds a new lease on life at the Sheriff's Animal Farm in Key West

Rehabilitation is one of the foundational building blocks ensuring a sustainable future for our planet's animals and places like these are great at teaching these principles to the whole family. Situated below the jail, the farm was initially just a safe haven for ducks who were continually knocked over while crossing a busy road. The tenancy grew due to a newspaper clipping. All animals on the farm needed a new home due to various circumstances and the variety include ponies, ducks, parrots, goats, turtles, lemurs, sloths and even a Burmese python. Entertaining and educational, this facility will not cost you a penny, however, donations are always welcome.
