I was educated by the staff, and left with more knowledge. I wish sanctuaries didn't have to exist. I wish that animals could live in the wild. This was as close I've seen to the wild - given these animals are in captivity. The elephants look healthy and strong. Finally a place that allows the animal to live the rest of their life as an animal, not a circus prop.

It took this sanctuary three years to kill off the three elephants they received from Canada. TB…read moreruns rapidly in this scammuary too. During the fires three years ago, In true AR fashion, the animals were left to burn to death as the disgusting owners did nothing to evacuate them. Just another disgusting scammuary that doesn't bother to give their animals proper medical care, and seeps up money from idiots for their animal rights agenda. This is truly sad anyone could support a disgrace of a sanctuary. I wonder if it would be okay for a pet owner to allow their pets to burn to death if there was danger of fire. My pets are savannahs and hybrid mixes. I have no doubt that if I let my cats toy burn to death, AR groups would have judged and condemned me. There was a fire a mile from my home, and I got enough cardboard boxes to transport my pets. Yet, when a fire was a mile away from this scammuary the AR leadership would have left those animals to burn to death. I hope this facility shuts down or is taken over by people that actually value animals over their stupid AR agenda. The small zoo near my house had all the animals evacuated in 30 minutes when the same fire I prepared for was a mile close. Yet, AR scammuary didn't care enough about their animals to do the same. I hope the people from the Toronto Zoo gave those idiots a piece of their mind for killing their elephants. There are elephants that are working animals that live longer! You are all sick and disgusting! AR has nothing to do with the welfare and well being of an animal, it is about destroying the human and animal bond.

I tested for a Probation officer position. 3 months later I was contacted to come and speak with…read morethe Chief and his assistant. I took the time to travel more than an hour to San Andreas and took a mini tour of the office and surrounding areas. Shortly afterwards I was put into the background process with a private investigator named Stephen Clifford who ran his own investigative firm. I turned in a bunch of documents as requested. About a month later I received a letter from Calaveras HR stating I was no longer being considered. Mr. Clifford did not even conduct any kind of background investigation. He contacted a few references and that was it. I never even fingerprinted for their department yet a complete background was completed. What a shady investigative firm, I believe the Chief hired his personal friend to do the investigative work. Very unprofessional and totally wasted my time. I would not recommend anyone to apply for work in Calaveras county.

The dedication from the staff here is nothing short of a miracle. Very attentive and helpful.read more
