FAQ

Zoos play a vital role in conserving rare and endangered species through breeding programs and rehabilitation. Many animals at risk of extinction in the wild are given a chance to survive and reproduce in the protected environments of zoos.

Zoos design enclosures that mimic the animals' natural habitats, including climate control, vegetation, and terrain. This ensures the animals feel comfortable and behave as they would in the wild, which is essential for their well-being.

Zoo animals are fed diets that closely resemble what they would eat in the wild. Herbivores are given plants, leaves, and fruits, while carnivores are provided with fresh meat. Zookeepers carefully monitor their nutrition to ensure they stay healthy.

Zoos use enrichment activities to keep animals mentally active, such as providing toys, puzzles, or hiding food to encourage natural behaviors like hunting or foraging. This helps prevent boredom and improves the animals' overall mental health.

Zookeepers are responsible for the daily care of zoo animals, ensuring they are fed, healthy, and active. They also develop strong bonds with the animals, allowing them to detect changes in behavior or health and provide timely care.

Nocturnal animals are most active at night, so zoos often have specially designed dimly lit exhibits that simulate nighttime. This allows visitors to observe these animals during their active hours, offering a glimpse into their natural nighttime behaviors.
