Alligator & Wildlife Discovery Center
Madeira Beach's Alligator and Wildlife Discovery Center aims for humane, professional care for pet surrenders and orphaned native wildlife that cannot be safely returned to the wild.
The center is home to over 250 animals including lizards, small mammals, amphibians, turtles and tortoises, fresh and saltwater marine life, and – of course – alligators.
The animals at the Alligator and Wildlife Discovery Center come from various sources such as the FWC, SPCA, wildlife rescues, and individual owners who can no longer care for their pets. They aim to educate the public about the ways we can coexist with the rich diversity of wildlife in the world.
