Wild Adventures Theme Park
Owned by the Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation, the Wild Adventures theme park has seven different themed areas. Located 5 miles from Valdosta, Georgia, United States, the park features more than 100 rides and attractions, including 9 coasters, hundreds of exotic animals, shows, Splash Island water park and numerous concerts featuring country, pop, rock, Christian, and oldie superstars. Park admission includes concerts, daily shows, all the rides and attractions, special events and the water park.

Kent Buescher, founder of Wild Adventures, started the park on a plot of farm land outside of Valdosta, Ga. in 1996. Starting out as a small petting zoo, over the years, Wild Adventures has become one of the Top 50 Theme Parks in North America.

The park is home to nine roller coasters and numerous flat rides, the largest collection of rides in the South and the second largest collection in North America. Rides were added to the park in 1998 and has since rapidly grown. Splash Island, the park's water park, opened in 2003 as the park's largest expansion which includes several water slides and attractions. In 2004, Adventure Parks Group purchased Cypress Gardens in Winter Haven, Fla. The company is privately held by Buescher. Expansion died down for the park in recent years following the Cypress Gardens purchase.
