New World Animalist for a day
Come and live a unique experience at the Sainte-Croix animal park! For one morning, discover the animals by slipping into the shoes of a caretaker. You will share the daily life of a wide variety of New World species and participate in different interventions that are usually performed at the animal park. Let yourself be guided by a groomer who will have the privilege of teaching you all the facets of his job.
On the program: cleaning of the enclosures, preparation and distribution of food to the animals, especially the daines. You will experience a unique contact with them and will even be able to feed them by hand! Observation is also part of the daily work: we check that the animals are in good shape and we make sure that they do not have any particular problem. A discovery of the life of new species in the New World: raccoons, skunks, prairie dogs, bison, porcupines.
To extend the experience, you can visit the park in the afternoon.
