Citrus County is home to many great parks with an abundance of wildlife, and beautiful Florida flora and fauna.
A perfect example would be The Homosassa Springs State Wildlife Park
It is a a 210-acre park that encompasses some of Florida's lovliest landscape and the headwaters of the Homosassa River.
The park serves as a rehabilitation center and refuge for injured and orphaned endangered West Indian manatees. The natural spring environment allows them an opportunity to re-acclimate themselves to a more natural environment before they are returned to the wild. The park also offers visitors an opportunity to observe Florida's native wildlife in natural settings. One strolls along paved trails and boardwalks to see manatees, black bear, bobcats, key deer, alligators, grey fox, otters and cougars at close range. Most of the birds and animals that live here cannot survive in the wild.
Admission Fees -Adults (age 13 and over) $9.00 per person. Children (ages 3 through 12) $5.00 per person. There is no charge for children age's 3 years and under.
