About
Welcome to Animal Adventures!
Animal Adventures is an exotic animal rescue, founded by Ed and Brenda Laquidara in 1997, but they began this journey long before that. Ed, has been working with exotics since his youth and over the years and experience, gained his PhD in Zoology and is one of the world's most sought after herpetologists. Brenda owned a pet store in Medford, MA for many years with her sister
Robin. Together, Ed and Brenda formed Animal Adventures. The mission is to give a home to unwanted and unable to be cared for animals while educating the public about these animals. We travel to many schools, libraries, colleges, and other functions. We teach lessons at birthday parties and in the classroom. Feel free to visit our rescue zoo in Bolton and see and learn about all of these amazing animals!
Animal Adventures is NOT a licensed rehab facility or hospital. We can treat some animals with minor injuries but we cannot take animals from the wild.
If you have an injured animal from the wild please contact a local wildlife rehabilitation facility.
Call before dropping off. We take surrendered/unwanted pets and can give them a new and safe home either here or somewhere we deem appropriate. All of our other animals are rescued or surrendered from other zoos or breeding facilities and a few other rare cases.
