This sanctuary, which has been in existence for 50 years, looks after a thousand animals of 120 different species. Over a shaded area of 23 hectares, you will discover birds, raccoons, monkeys, reptiles, felines, bears and herbivores. Each animal has its own story to tell as you stroll through the park, from private individuals to zoos, circuses and laboratories. Our guides will also be happy to meet you along the way for themed encounters such as "The life of primates", "Felines", "The animals that surround us", etc.
