Safari's
Sanctuary in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma was started in 1995 to
rescue all types of animals, that include primates, hoof stock,
big cats, birds, wolves, reptiles, bears and anything else that
walks on four legs or two, to include the birds; from any kind
of disastrous environment that they are found in. The sanctuary
already has more than 200 varieties of these rescued critters
and is always happy to take on more. Another educational feature
of the sanctuary is the constant informing of children today
about the hazards and difficulties of trying to raise or keep an
exotic animal as a pet. The animals that come here, are from
folks that just couldn't handle or keep them anymore or defunct
zoos that are looking for someplace to make a home for their
animals. They try to instruct children and others to check out
or research what your choice of animal does, their behavioral
habits and more. The site occupies 12 acres of land currently
and is totally dedicated to the care and preservation of their
animals. They aren't breeders, but only rescuers, trying to give
these unwanted or unable to handle any longer safely, animals
that would end up being euthanized or put out into the wild. You
are invited to feed many of the animals, birds and reptiles, as
well as the big cats that you need a feeding pole to give them
their food. They currently house 27 big cats, that include, a
leopard, golden tabby tiger, which is very rare, Barbary lions,
liger, cougars, tigers and lions, so you'll be sure to enjoy
feeding them all. They also have monkeys, a kangaroo, bears and
more, oh my! It is a great place to visit when you are in the
Broken Arrow area and the animals always love the attention and
the love that pours out to them from visitors. The sanctuary
also houses a petting zoo with all the usual barnyard animals so
you and your children can get as close as possible and touch,
pet, feed and love on the animals for as long as you like. Some
of the others animals include; Pac man frog, baboon, chickens,
black bear, cockatoo, emu, mini Sicilian donkey, Chinese ducks,
Chinese pheasants, ferrets, Quaker parrot, capuchin, chinchilla,
fallow deer, cougar, black leopard, kangaroos, liger which is a
cross between a tiger and lion, porcupine, Oriental otter,
marmoset, potbellied pig, wolves, zebra, sheep, Bengal tiger,
Siberian tiger, corn snake, alligators, anaconda, bearded
dragon, iguana, monitors, Burmese python, ball python, spurred
tortoise and so many more that you will be thrilled and really
enjoy the time and animals that need and love your attention. 
The
Oklahoma Aquarium in Jenks, Oklahoma, one of the many suburbs of
Tulsa, sitting on the banks of the Arkansas River, with 66 acres of
marvelous land, constructed in 2002 and opening the next year,
hoping to attract about half a million visitors each year to the
Tulsa area. Occupying 72,000 square feet of exhibit space, the
aquarium houses many exotic species of marine life, along with fish
and freshwater environments that are native to the state and region.
Their main feature is the half a million gallon shark tank, that
offers a shark tunnel that you can walk through, as if you were
right in the midst of these awesome predators, and in the midst of
the tunnel is a 12 foot high and 20 foot wide all-acrylic
observation dome that was created to allow a panoramic 360 degree
unobstructed view of the many wonders of the tank. Called the shark
adventure, the tank is a wonderful example of how sharks and other
fish live in this creative environment. There are many lemon and
bull sharks swimming around the tank that keep visitors mesmerized
for hours. Another of the aquarium's favorite exhibits includes the
Karl and Beverly White National Fishing Tackle Museum that houses
the biggest antique fishing tackle collection in the entire world.
Discovery Channel's famous naturalist and filmmaker, Nigel Marven
and his crew came here in 2003 and documented four of the bull
sharks for a show, living in the architecturally innovative tank
with it being shown on the channel's Shark Week series. The aquarium
has eight galleries that contain thousands of salt and fresh water
fish and species; as well as a great hall for after hours
happenings, or the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation
regional headquarters, Quiktrip Education wetlabs and classrooms and
the Zebco Casting pond. The first exhibit displays the biodiversity
of the aquarium that has been sponsored by the Anne and Henry Zarrow
foundation, with a large number of unique creatures from the seas.
Adaption is another display that showcases fish that can breath the
air or the creatures that can see above and below the water, along
with many other varieties of unique marine animals. Fishes of
Oklahoma are supported by the Oxley Foundation and ONEOK, and houses
a 120 year alligator snapping turtle, 7 foot long gars, and a
beautiful state record blue catfish. The Hayes Family Ozark stream
is a really unusual environment display that contains beavers,
raccoons, mammals, river otters and sunfish, smallmouth bass and
other varieties of fish from the state's environmental rivers and
streams. There is so much to see and do here that it will take some
time for you and your family to explore the entire aquarium and
offers a perfect way to learn more about the state's marine life. 
The
Mission Bell Museum in Coweta, Oklahoma is situated in a marvelous
1907 church that showcases many unique forms of architecture and
memorabilia that are from the region's pre-statehood era to the
current day with many outstanding artifacts and relics. The
structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in
2003, and is about a block from downtown Coweta. Originally built as
the First Presbyterian Church in 1907, the congregation had about 34
members in 1918 and the massive chandelier that hung in the center
is said to have been brought to the church by boat down the Ohio and
Mississippi Rivers and then up the Arkansas River in 1907. It has
been stated that the entire town went down to the docks to greet the
ship carrying this significant cargo. Sometime in 1972, the church
left and the structure became the Mission Bell Museum, containing
various historical relics and the church's 36 original pews.
The
Gilcrease Museum is located northwest of Tulsa, Oklahoma, containing
the world's biggest, most complete collection of art of the American
west, along with an excellent collection of art and relics from
Central and South America, and named after Thomas Gilcrease, who had
been an oil tycoon and lover of the arts. Tom grew up in the Creek
nation, that had settled or been placed in Oklahoma, and at the turn
of the 20th century, the government begin giving the lands that had
been held and living on by the American Indian tribes, to private
citizens. Because Tom was a member of the tribe, he would be
allotted 160 acres of land located south of the city near Glenn
Pool. Ironically, the land was part of a huge oil field, and Tom
proved that he was an able businessman, starting the Gilcrease Oil
Company in 1922, and in a little under a decade had increased his
original holdings immensely. This would enable Tom to travel around
the world, but mostly in Europe during the 1920s and 1930s, with
those marvelous visits to the European museums inspiring him to
begin his own collection. Since he was proud of his heritage and
interest in the Native American west, he made this area a
significant point of his collecting. His first oil painting purchase
was bought for $1500 and that was titled Rural Courtship, which he
acquired in 1912. However, the majority of the collection would be
purchased after 1939, with Tom opening his first museum in his oil
company headquarters that was located in San Antonio, Texas, in
1943. In a few more years, Tom would leave Texas and return to his
home state and town, bringing a vast collection, opening a gallery
in 1949, on his Tulsa estate. He had began collecting works of the
west, when no one really cared for or about them, so he could amass
a large collection without putting considerable funds into the
collection. In the early 1950s, he would get many new works, relics
and documents that greatly enlarged his collections; but then
declining oil prices would make it hard for him to continue.
Finally, Tom had to try selling his entire collection to pay off his
huge debts, in hopes of keeping it all together, and in 1954, afraid
that the marvelous collection would be leaving the city and region,
some of the citizens in Tulsa organized a bond election that would
purchase the collection and keep it in the city. Many of the
country's most famous artists are included in the museum's
collections; Frederic Remington, Joseph Henry Sharp, Thomas Moran
and Albert Bierstadt, along with John James Audubon, Charles Marion
Russell and Alexander Hogue. His collection of Native American
artists contain over 500 paintings by 20th century artists and
houses a long term native American exhibition. The anthropology
collection itself has 300,000 relics from North, Central and South
America that span the pre-historic and historic archaeology and
ethnographic items from pre-Columbian, Anglo-American, Native
American and Hispanic cultures. It is an outstanding museum and one
well worth visiting.
