The animals of Little Mountain.
Six species. Each one rescued. Each one given the space and care to simply live out their lives in peace.
Little Mountain Animal Sanctuary isn't your run-of-the-mill animal sanctuary. We're a slice of 19th-century wildlife preservation right here in Mentor, OH. Our historical 1800s preserve is a haven for unique creatures, and a testament to our commitment to animal welfare and education.
We operate on a donation-only basis , no entry fees, just pure animal magic. We offer same-day scheduling whenever we can. As a 501(c)(3) corporation, every penny you donate goes straight back into caring for our animals and maintaining our unique sanctuary.
