The Reynolds family is legendary among film professionals for specializing in training complicated and intricate animal sequences with all kinds of animals. Sled Reynolds, the owner of Gentle Jungle, was raised in the tradition of approaching animal training as a privilege as well as a challenge and adventure.

Sled’s father, Fess Reynolds, trained animals for the film and television industry dating back to the days of silent movies and cowboy westerns. Today, Sled's sons, Titus and Jordan, are part of the professional Gentle Jungle animal training team.

When you need domestic or exotic animals, expert trainers, transportation or other specialized animal services, Gentle Jungle can provide them.  Our performing animals and trainers are friendly, enthusiastic and thoroughly enjoy their work.
