The Fund for Animals' Black Beauty Ranch

The Fund operates the world famous Black Beauty Ranch in eastern Texas. The 1,000-acre refuge is home to many hundreds of animals -- from chimpanzees to burros to elephants. Here, animals do not get harassed or harmed, but a helping hand and healthy food.

• Black Beauty Ranch provides tours for individuals and groups who are interested in meeting the animals and seeing first hand how the sanctuary operates. Because we are not a zoo and our first priority is the animals, tours are given by appointment only so as not to conflict with our care giving. We are about a one hour drive east of Dallas, Texas. For tour information call (903) 469-3811.
