Welcome to WildIdeasConsulting.net

Wild Ideas is a new venture from some very experienced people. Lex Salisbury and Merle Seamon, the Principals of Wild Ideas have over 60 years of combined experience in planning, designing, building and operating a wide variety of different animal related attractions. Lex and Merle have combined forces to offer you a new way to improve the vitality of your existing facility or insure the success of your planned animal related venture.

While we are capable and well prepared to assist facilities of all sizes, we feel that smaller private and public zoological facilities, game ranches and similar attractions have largely been overlooked by traditional zoological feasibility, master planning, design and construction firms. Wild Ideas has been established to provide these institutions with the same level of professional assistance with emphasis on affordability and self-sustaining design.

We know that your facility is an individual and we will tailor our approach to meeting your needs as quickly and inexpensively as possible. We provide a level of professional experience and knowledge that is available to you on an as needed basis. We will work with you to provide only those services you really need. There are many ways we can help you economize such as self-performing parts of your development work with our professional guidance. We always strive to insure that your planned improvements are cost effective and that they will justify the expenditure of you hard earned dollars.

We are prepared to provide consulting regarding almost any aspects of exotic animal related businesses. Some of our more frequently requested services include:
  • tuning studies to improve profitability
