Ecomuseum Zoo, Wildlife zoo in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, Canada.
Ecomuseum Zoo is a facility in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue that displays mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish in environments designed to resemble their natural habitats. The facility spans several areas where you can walk through different sections, each housing creatures that live or once lived in the Quebec region.
The facility was established in 1988 as a conservation center for injured and relocated animals. It has developed into an important center for teaching people about native species and their care in this corner of Quebec.
The zoo shows visitors how Quebec's native animals fit into the region's natural systems and why their protection matters to the community. You can observe how the facility teaches people about living alongside local wildlife through direct encounters with injured or displaced creatures.
The facility is open daily, so plan to spend a few hours walking through the different sections at a comfortable pace. Since much of the site is outdoors, bring sunscreen and wear appropriate clothing, especially if you visit during warm weather.
Every animal at the facility was rescued from the wild or suffered injuries that prevent its return to nature. Meeting them offers a chance to understand the real challenges that face creatures in the region and why rehabilitation matters.
