Petting zoo
The favourites of many of our visitors are the young crocodiles, whom you can even touch and stroke if you want during their feeding on Saturday afternoons.
The Tarantulas “listen” through the hairs on their legs, which are stirred by the sound waves.
In the shaded dinosaur garden, adults can take a break – while the children can go on a discovery trip.
We ask for your understanding that the petting zoo is not allowed to enter.
Again and again, there were registered cases of animals becoming injured due to visitors’ improper handlings. We strive to save the rabbits and guinea pigs, not hurt them. All animals that can be reached from the parapet can be petted. If no animal is nearby, you can ask the Zookeeper for carrots with which to attract the bunnies, etc.
The animals in the petting zoo were handed over by their respective owners because they were no longer wanted or because there was no place left for them… |
