It’s graduation day for some of our rescued ducks! A lot of these guys have been with us since they were just a few days old and are finally ready to join the other waterfowl in the ponds! Having the ability to save these ducks and see them enjoy happy, healthy lives is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do here at

This beautiful albino red tail boa is our newest rescue here at Second Chance. He is about 7 years old and pushing 8 feet in length. His owner could no longer care for him due to his size and he will now be spoiled here. Always know what you are getting into when you purchase exotic pets and please never release them into the wild! @ Second Chance Wildlife Sanctuary

This beautiful pastel ball python was recently surrendered to SCWS. He will be fat and happy during his time here! Fun fact; ball pythons are actually called royal pythons, but earned this nick name from their signature defensive position where they coil up like a ball to hide their head from predators as shown in the second picture. @ Second Chance Wildlife Sanctuary

This beautiful Cuban Knight Anole recently came to SCWS as a rescue. They are yet another example of an established invasive species in the sunshine state and are outnumbering native lizard species in parts of South Florida.

Thanks to all of the rain we’ve been receiving the seasonal creek at SCWS is alive and well! The creek extends from the front of the property and travels all the way through it to the little Econ river. This provides a great summertime habitat for all of the animals that call this beautiful place home.

Some visitors hanging out with two of the resident boa constrictors! These are actually the same species of snake, Columbian red tail boas, but the one that looks more orange is a genetic morph called a super salmon. Red tail boas reach lengths of over 10 feet long and are common rescues here at Second Chance. These guys have called the sanctuary home for a few years and love to explore. @ Second Chance Wildlife Sanctuary

Lucky the pig getting a nice drink of water from the hose. Lucky was found separated from her mother as a baby and was nursed back to health. She is incredibly smart and full of personality. At any given time you can find her wading in the front pond or playing with her canine best friend, Phoenix.
