This photo showing some of "St. Nick's Animals" was taken at the "Home of 1000 Animals," which was a tourist attraction that was part of the Sterling Alaska Fur and Game Farms, with locations in Lake Placid (as seen here) and Ausable Chasm, New York. As the signs suggest (see text below), visitors could purchase food in order to feed Angora goats, several varieties of deer, and other animals.

For another photo, see Home of 1000 Animals, Lake Placid, N.Y., 1969.

St. Nick's Animals, Lake Placid

Notice. Deer will eat from your hands. Buy food from machines and get good pictures.

Angoras climb the mountain. Feed 'em on top. Get a good picture.

Here are . . . brown Japanese, white European, Dama dama, [and] Indian spotted deers.
