Forest Animal Rescue

Lisa and Kurt are two of the most dedicated people I’ve ever met, and their animals are some of the best-kept I’ve ever seen in captivity. Their rehabilitation skills are the best in the state in my professional opinion.

Lisa and Kurt are two of the most dedicated people I’ve ever met. The animals they rescue are always their top priority.

As a journalist, I seek out powerful narratives that allow us to reflect on our place in the world, and stories that offer us lessons on how to be better. When we visited Forest Animal Rescue, we’d never seen such a wide variety of creatures, each living through their own challenging, gut-wrenching experiences of trials gone by. But the passion and dedication put forth by Lisa and Kurt, providing these amazing animals with comfort and peace, has made this rescue the very definition of the word “sanctuary.” You may search the world, far and wide, but you will not find more ethically sound, caring individuals to place your trust in and throw your support behind. Truly, what they’re doing in Florida for animals everywhere deserves recognition and praise of the highest order — but they’re not ones for taking credit. So please, help them rise, as the animals will be the ones to benefit. You can count on Lisa and Kurt to stretch those dollars on their behalf in the most miraculous of ways.

Absolutely awesome sanctuary with incredibly knowledgable and passionately dedicated owners. They make a difference and we are proud to support them.

A great place to learn. Kurt and Lisa have done such a great job with the animals. It’s such a pleasure to visit the forest.

I volunteered at PRR&R several years ago and had the most wonderful experience. The best interests of the animals is at the forefront of everything that Kurt and Lisa do and they work tirelessly. I will never forget my 6 weeks at the sanctuary!

Couldn’t find any one better then Lisa and Kurt to care for and look after all of these animals. Their love and devotion to their cause is amazing. The animals are blessed to have such a wonderful group of people looking after them.
