Animal keeper for a day at Mulhouse zoo

What if you were to step through the gates? The Parc zoologique et botanique de Mulhouse offers you a rare experience: share the day-to-day life of animal caretakers for 3 hours, at the heart of one of France’s oldest zoos.

Supervised by a park professional, you’ll take part in essential animal care missions: preparing food rations, taking part in feeding, helping to clean the facilities and observing the animals’ behavior in their environment. A precious opportunity to get up close to emblematic species and better understand their needs, while respecting animal welfare protocols.

This immersion program is aimed at nature lovers, wildlife enthusiasts and future professionals in the sector, aged 16 and over. The activity is deliberately limited to a maximum of 5 participants, to encourage exchanges with the animal keeper and guarantee individualized supervision.

With its wildlife areas and botanical gardens, the Parc de Mulhouse is renowned for its commitment to the preservation of endangered species. You’ll get a real insight into the essential role played by groomers in conserving biodiversity.

An experience to be enjoyed up close and personal with the animals, by online reservation only.
