Origin of animals
Where do the animals in the park come from?
The animals housed in our park come from various organisations, all of which are dedicated to their welfare and the protection of biodiversity.
– Some were born and raised in captivity in Italian and European zoos, where they received the care they needed to thrive in a safe and secure environment.
– Others come from rehabilitation centres, where they have been treated for injuries or illnesses. Although they have overcome most of their health issues, some of these animals still have problems that compromise their ability to survive in the wild.
In our park, they receive the love and care of our keepers, dedicated professionals who look after their daily wellbeing, providing them with food, emotional support and a peaceful environment to give them a second chance at life. The keepers constantly monitor the animals’ behaviour, diet and social needs, working closely with the vets to ensure the health of every animal in their care.
Animal welfare is our top priority. Breeding conditions at the Park are constantly updated in line with the latest scientific findings and research in the field of zoology. A careful and respectful approach ensures that all our animals receive the best possible care and activities tailored to the needs of their species.
The enclosures are designed with great care, drawing on scientific expertise that takes into account both the animals’ living conditions and their welfare needs. They are then continually adapted in line with new findings. Our experts in animal care, animal welfare and veterinary medicine are passionately dedicated to the health and wellbeing of our ‘residents’ 365 days a year.
Depending on the time of day, you may witness fascinating scenes that reveal the animals’ natural behaviour. You may see the animals playing together, chasing one another energetically or interacting with curiosity, whilst others feed, drink, build their dens, make their calls and sounds, or simply rest, lying in complete tranquillity and conserving their energy. Every scene you observe is the result of a natural environment, created to allow the animals to freely express their behavioural habits, just as they would in the wild.
In addition, the animals are constantly monitored by the relevant health authorities, such as the U.S.L. V.D.A. and the Experimental Zooprophylactic Institute of Piedmont, Liguria and Valle d’Aosta (Ce.R.M.A.S.).
