SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 16  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Great American Family Parks, Inc.

The park is inspected annually by Animal and Plant Inspection Services, based on the rules and regulations of the Animal Welfare Act, to ensure the health and safety of all animals in the park's care.  Additionally, the Troupe County Health Department health inspector gave Wild Animal Safari's food properties a perfect score of 100 for the park's concessions and food operations.

With over 1,800 animals in our care, it is critical that they receive the best treatment and living conditions possible.  By ensuring the well-being of these animals we are able to provide park visitors with the best possible interactive safari experience available.  As a part of our full service -- family centric -- philosophy, we focus on making all aspects of the safari experience enjoyable. A visit to the park is rounded out by our very clean bathrooms, highly rated and popular food concessions, shops, and friendly customer service to ensure that park visitors remain happy and above all else safe, when they lose themselves in the Wild Animal Safari destination experience.  I congratulate our park's management and staff on a job well done."

About Wild Animal Safari Park

Wild Animal Safari is a wholly owned subsidiary of Great American Family Parks.  Formerly Pine Mountain Wild Animal Park, the 200-acre park, located within the 500-acre parcel purchased in September 2005 by GFAM, contains more than 1,800 animals.  The park's jungle of animals come from around the globe, including Africa, India, Australia, Europe, South America and North America, every continent except Antarctica.  Unlike a zoo, where animals are confined in small, man-made quarters, most of the animals at the park roam freely throughout its countryside, socializing, grazing and watering as they would in their original environments.  Wild Animal Safari Park is located within an easily accessible one-hour drive time from Atlanta and Macon, Georgia, as well as Montgomery and Birmingham, Alabama.
