It is in particular the opportunity to activate the senses that we use little like hearing or smell, and for example to discover that we can be less than 2 meters from a Tiger without realizing it. account !
But the Night of the Predators is also a moment of privileged exchanges with a caretaker, and of discovery of the biology of the large terrestrial predators.

The program of “The night of the predators”

The health of the animals is our absolute priority and in order to respect their peace of mind at night, not to stress them and to preserve their balance, tests have been carried out beforehand so that only the species and individuals who adapt well to our presence participate in this program.
Combining exchange, conviviality but also observations and night travel, the program is varied and is composed as follows:
[custom_list style=”list-9″]

  • A welcome of the participants and a discovery of some species of the zoo, as long as night has not fallen.
  • A behind-the-scenes tour of the zoo.
  • A convivial dinner/buffet which will also be an opportunity to discover how the zoo works, its objectives and to answer questions from visitors while waiting for the night.
  • The provision of equipment to move in the dark night.
  • The visit of the park and the observation of the animals thanks to specific lighting.
  • The discovery of the large predators of the park such as Lions, Tigers, Clouded Panthers or Wolves but also of the local fauna thanks to the listening of the cries and the observation of the bats living in the castle and hunting above of the park.
