Safari Lake Geneva owner-founder "Jungle" Jay Christie, Wisconsin’s foremost exotic animal expert, talks about the unique 75-acre wildlife preserve, located five miles from downtown Lake Geneva at W1612 Litchfield Rd. in the Town of Bloomfield. Housing animals from around the world as Wisconsin and Chicagoland's only drive-through conservation park, familiy-owned Safari Lake Geneva offers visitors an interactive drive-through safari experience that consistently ranks as one of the top attractions in the Lake Geneva area. Interested in animals since childhood, Christie had long dreamed of creating a refuge for the world’s diminishing breeds that allowed the animals to roam vast acreage like in nature. Online reservations are required for admittance to Safari Lake Geneva.
