Currently, Ryder's Ranch is a private sanctuary. Because we house sensitive species, including venomous snakes and large crocodilians, the safety of our animals and the public is our top priority. We share our mission daily through our YouTube channel and social media, and hope to offer private tours in the future.
Our founder Tyler Nolan has held his venomous and crocodilian permits since age 18. Every habitat at the Ranch is built to meet or exceed Florida Fish and Wildlife (FWC) safety standards, ensuring our animals are managed with the highest level of professional care.
Taking an animal in is only the beginning. Many of our residents live for decades. A forever home means constant costs: construction, exotic veterinary care, and specialized nutrition. Your donations build the infrastructure that keeps these animals safe for the next 50 years.
