DoeZoo Insektenwereld, Insect zoo in Leens, Netherlands.
DoeZoo Insektenwereld exhibits numerous insect species through displays that demonstrate their natural behaviors, habitats, and life cycles in controlled environments.
The facility started as a hobby project in 1998 and relocated to a former camping site on De Wierde street in 2004 due to expansion needs.
The zoo functions as a care institution where people with disabilities participate in daily activities and supervised work programs within the facility.
Visitors can access the zoo from Monday through Saturday between 10:00 and 17:00, with restaurant services available except on Mondays.
The collection includes insect-eating plants and specialized animal species like axolotls, bearded dragons, and American kestrels alongside various insects.
