Aurochs
Aurochs is a wildlife park in Viișoara dedicated to the protection and breeding of aurochs. Visitors can observe these large animals in an open enclosure designed to show their natural behavior and way of living.
Aurochs were wild cattle that roamed Europe and went extinct in the 1600s. Modern breeding programs like this one work to restore the species by recreating its characteristics through selective breeding.
The park is best visited during daytime when the animals are active and moving freely. Wear comfortable shoes as exploring the open grounds requires walking on natural terrain.
This facility focuses on back-breeding aurochs, a process of recreating animals with traits from their extinct ancestors. Visitors can see firsthand how breeders and scientists undertake this demanding scientific work.
