Star Eco Station


Keep your fingers out of this squawkbox if you know
what's good for you.


Star Eco Station
Rocklin, CA

If you’re one of those people who thinks the illegal pet alligator living in your bathtub is in perfectly capable hands, it’s probably not the first bad life decision you’ve made.

Also, you’re probably a little crazy.

Illegal, abused and abandoned wildlife are the focus at Star Eco Station where they receive the highest care and serve as educational tools for the general public.  While most of the residents are housed in species-appropriate cages and tanks (no bathtubs), a few of the residents can be handled, making for an exciting hands-on experience.

Naturalists provide guided tours throughout the facility and offer a barrage of facts about the reptiles, fish and other creatures that call the museum home.  You’ll learn how everyday human life is taking its toll on our planet.  You’ll also quickly learn your personal tolerance for multiple screeching birds within a confined space.

Through Star Eco Station’s camps, mobile exhibits and field trips, it’d be tough to avoid learning something new at each event.  Did you know an iguana can spray its urine 15 feet?  Take a cue from the historical evidence on the floor and stay back.
