Opinion by
JUDGE BERNARD
T1 Can a court order a land owner to sell the land to another if the other's structures encroach on the land? We recognize that this remedy, which is called a "foreed sale," should be used sparingly in encroachment cases. But, under the unusual facts of this case, we conclude that such a remedy was proper.
12 This appeal involves a refuge that harbors exotic animals. It is owned by defendants, Big Cats of Serenity Springs, Inc., d/b/a Serenity Springs Wildlife Center, and Jules Investment, Inc. The animals live in structures that are. surrounded by fences.
