Animal Park Cappeller

Very nice zoo, it's small, but it has different playgrounds and a bar that serves sandwiches. It's very well kept and it's a great place to spend a few hours with the kids. You can bring your own picnic too.

Awesome place! Everything is well put together, well maintained, the animals appear happy and well cared for. most of the walking paths are covered by trees so you're in shade most of the time on hot summer days. We went there with one and two-year-old kids, thinking we get an hour or two out of them, but we were there almost 5 hours and they loved every minute of it! Bravo!

Great little zoo

Early morning access is definitely suggested to avoid the crowd. Nice picnic areas, the park is not too big so that you can easily visit without rushing through. I loved these orange birds, my son too :)

I've been left with a bitter taste in my mouth after visiting this park because I haven't been convinced that the animals kept here are being given enough living space and care. Some animals don't have a companion to share their life with. Many, if not all, species of bird don't have enough space to fly. Other cages, instead, are crowded to such an extent that the animals could be overheard ferociously fighting with one another several times in a couple hours. Bees and wasps plague the place. They feast over the food that should be destined to the animals kept in the cage, and are a danger for animals and visitors alike. A young child was stung in front of me during my visit. A large majority of the animals purposely take shelter in the most remote corner of their small cages, showing clear signs of being stressed by the human visitors being allowed to approach their "homes" at such close distance. All in all, it feels like there are way too many animal species for this small place. This, together with the long opening hours, the small cages and other small details, leave the distinctive impression that the entire focus of this park is on pleasing the visitors instead of the animal guests. Even after looking at the website, it's mostly unclear what is being done to concretely support reintroduction of animals to their native environment. This is particularly concerning for those species advertised as being endangered by human activity. It would be helpful to clearly explain how this animal park fits the bigger picture of animal conservation and also justify at an individual level the presence of each and every animal in this park: why they are here? where do they come from? Are there plans to reintroduce them in nature? If no, why? What are the plans for improving their quality of life? Being honest about current limitations would also help showing visitors that the well-being of the animals is kept in high regard even when practical reasons might require some temporary compromise for a short while.

Great little nature park. Mostly shaded which was nice because it was quite hot. Several play areas and picnic areas. Fun for the whole family.

Very nice place. The animals are feeling well as I've seen and kept mostly in good conditions. Thank you ❤️

The entrance fee is a little expensive, but worth it. I can see that in the layout of the premises with glass walls separating you from the animal. Makes for very good photos. As previous posts have stated, lots of shade, picnic style tables to sit on and playgrounds for kids. I saw animals I have never seen before. Not sure if it was a light day with the amount of people, but it wasn’t crowded at all. This is a nice treasure of a place.
