Animal info talks
Animal info talks during summer 2024
What do animals eat for breakfast? How does one become a zoo keeper? How are endangered animal species protected?
The animal info talks at Ähtäri Zoo can answer your questions and tell you about both the species and the individual animals. The guides participate in the care of the animals and can therefore share stories about the lives, food, enrichment, and relationships of the zoo's inhabitants. You won't get this information anywhere else! During these animal info talks, the guides also either feed or enrich the animals, allowing the audience to see this aspect of the zoo's daily life. The talks last about 20minutes and there's always time for questions. One of zoos' most important roles is to spread information and knowledge, so these talks are very important to us and fun but educating for our visitors.
Animal info talks are mainly held in Finnish.
