Ferme de la Motte, Rural zoo in Quiéry-la-Motte, France.
Ferme de la Motte is a farm and zoo in the Beauce region with pastures, enclosure areas, and farmland for different animal species. Staff here work with livestock and also keep some wild animal species.
The property started as a traditional farm in Beauce and later became a public zoo. This change happened to help local people connect with nature and farming practices.
You can see how farm animals live day-to-day and understand the work that goes into caring for them. The place connects everyday agriculture with hands-on learning for families.
The grounds have gentle slopes with solid paths between enclosures that are easy to walk on foot. Parking is available and there are benches for resting.
Many visitors do not realize they can watch the same work routines that farmers have done for centuries. Seeing these everyday tasks up close with the animals makes the experience feel authentic.
