This park started in 1996 when Kent Buescher opened the Liberty Farms Animal Park. It began as a small petting zoo, but
rides started to appear in 1998 and the park's name changed to Wild Adventures around the same time. In 2004, the privately-held company owned by Buescher, the Adventure Parks Group, purchased
Cypress Gardens in Winter Haven, Florida. Wild Adventures' expansion died down following
the Cypress Gardens purchase. In September 2006, Adventure Parks Group filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection. This was partially caused when Cypress was hit with over $25 million in
damages due to Hurricanes Charley, Francis, and Jeanne. The Herschend Family Entertainment group purchased the park in 2007 and added several rides, three of which came
from the defunct Celebration City in Branson, Missouri.
Four coasters coaster have left the park. All four have pictures and additional details below:
