Espace zoologique de Saint-Martin-la-Plaine, Wildlife park in Saint-Martin-la-Plaine, France.
The Espace zoologique de Saint-Martin-la-Plaine is a zoo spread across multiple areas where animals from different continents live. The park houses both rescued animals and species that are at risk of disappearing in the wild.
The park started as a local wildlife sanctuary and gradually became a recognized zoological institution. Today it participates in international programs aimed at saving endangered species.
The park serves as a place where families and school groups learn directly about animals and their conservation needs. These visits often shape how people think about wildlife protection.
The park is accessible most days of the week with seasonal variations in hours. Comfortable shoes are recommended since you will be walking across the grounds to see different animal areas.
The park participates in a special initiative that transfers animals to reserves in Africa to help them live in natural settings. This work demonstrates how modern zoos actively contribute to protecting wildlife in the wild.
