No. Parents or guardians must accompany the boys and girls. It is a FAMILY experience.
Which animals can you choose?
Mammals
Accompanied by our educator you will enter the facilities of the animals where it is not possible to access in a normal visit.

- For the brave ones! You can enter the wild boar home. There are 5 wild board living there, but only the «head of the flock», Ariel, will approach you. She usually lies on her back so you can scratch her hairy belly.
- You can feed the roe deers. (It is available only in winter when the male Frac has no horns.)

Birds form an important part of our animal refuge. But not all animals are suitable for everyone. While some visitors want to interact with an eagle or a eagle owl, others might be frightened by their size.
We adapt to your requests. May be your guide will recommend you some animals according to his experience. The Animal Experience should be quite nice encounter with wild animals.

Who chooses the animals?
You choose them. Just look at the animals we have available on the web and tell the educator when the activity starts. We recommend a maximum of 5 animals.
Isn’t it stressful for the animals?
The animals involved in this activity are specimens that have spent so much time in close contact with people that cannot return to nature. They do not recognize their specie. Contact and interaction with humans is essential to their social well-being.
All these animals are previously prepared for direct contact with our visitors. Getting in touch with strangers is a small challenge for them. Without these small challenges his life in captivity would be boring. At the same time, contact with them increases people’s awareness of wildlife problems.
Isn’t it dangerous for participants?
No. An expert in wildlife will accompany you throughout the session. Before coming into direct contact with each animal, he will explane you the basics that you need to keep in mind. It is important that you follow these directions.
