Students at Roanoke Elementary School in Lewis County got a chance to see some really wild animals Friday afternoon.

Stonewall Resort is hosting a Wide World of Animals this weekend.

The event highlights a variety of animals from around the world.

Organizers invited the kids to come out and see the animals and Santa!

They said its part of their effort to give back to the community.

"We have leopards, lions, alligators, all kinds of animal you don't get to see around here, so it's pretty cool to be up close to these animals outside of a zoo setting," said Chris Audia, of Stonewall Resort.

The three shows Friday and Saturday are already sold out but you can contact the resort for cancellations.
