The Gregory Family has always been fascinated by animals and invested in conservation efforts. When they were choosing a fence to enclose the landfill, they opted for the eight-foot game fence, which looks less industrial and blends into the environment. A few cattle were brought to the property and the interest in having animals was sparked.
The family continued to add animals for the entertainment of invite-only guests and non-profit groups at the Pavilion. Now, the property includes species from every continent besides Antarctica. The animals continue to be enjoyed and help demonstrate that a properly run landfill can be a good neighbor to all. Endangered and exotic animals never have or will be used for hunting purposes at the TDS Exotic Game Ranch.
