Zoo de Mescoules

Zoo de Mescoules is a wildlife facility in Mescoules where visitors can see raccoons, lemurs, porcupines, peacocks, red ibises, pythons, crocodiles, and lizards housed in designed enclosures. Pathways lead through different sections, with each animal type occupying its own living space and area for movement.

The facility was created to bring animals closer to visitors while teaching people about conservation needs. It grew to become an important learning location in the Bergerac region.

The zoo allows visitors to observe diverse animal species up close and learn about their natural behaviors and habitats. This direct contact with wildlife helps people understand the importance of protecting these creatures.

The best times to visit are early morning or late afternoon when animals are most active. The grounds have adequate pathways for walking and are easy to navigate for most visitors.

Charlotte, an African sulcata tortoise, lives here and spends her days peacefully basking in her area. This gentle giant is a favorite sight for visitors captivated by her size and calm presence.
