On Saturday, Dec. 14, the Exotic Feline Breeding Compound’s Feline Conservation Center will be hosting its “Red Light Tours” special event. Guided tours will be provided so that guests can view our exhibit area wild cats under cover of darkness in their nocturnal state. Our tour guides will utilize red “night vision” flashlights to show you the cats. Flash photography is not allowed. Tours begin at 5 p.m. (before it is completely dark) and continue until the last tour departs at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 per person. Advance tickets can be purchased at http://www.eventbrite.com (search for “red light tour”).
