Visitors can admire well known species right next to less common and endangered species like the Snow Leopard, the Japanese Crane, Lear’s Macaw and the White Tiger whose white mantel is caused by the combination of recessive genes.

The Park offers an articulate didactic program for students of all ages. The guided tours are one, two or four hours long and organized with the help of a team of naturalists with two main goals. Give the students the opportunity to getto know the animals and at the same time increase their awareness of more generic themes tied to the environment and nature. Besides meeting the animals, the students can carry out laboratory activities that help stimulate reflection on the relationship between man and nature from a perceptive point of view.
