Animals injured on the road, orphaned offspring, chicks fallen from the nest… No one wants to take responsibility. At the Zoo of the Pyrenees we believe that caring for animals is everyone’s business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join our community that fights to save the lives of animals so that they do not die abandoned and in agony.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Feel good about yourself<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Doing charitable acts activates happiness hormones. It can indeed be addictive. Become a better person who inspires others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Enter into an honest relationship<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We are an open book. You can always verify that your money is going to the animals. Not to enrich ourselves, nor for the management of the company or for marketing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helen the genet lost her sight in a traffic accident.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

We cannot always return animals to the wild. If their injuries have lifelong consequences, their only hope is to live in controlled conditions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Humanized animals<\/h4>\n\n\n

The kestrel Banshee was stolen from his parents’ nest.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Treating animals with the utmost responsibility so that they do not become humanized is our priority. But sometimes animals arrive with altered behavior and cannot return to the wild.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Private persons may keep wild animals at home if they comply with the law. But once age or health problems start, the animals come to us. We provide them with a dignified life until their death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
