The Three Wise Men make a stop at BIOPARC Fuengirola to surprise the animals before their usual route through Spanish homes

During tonight, the animals of BIOPARC Fuengirola received a surprising visit from the Three Wise Men of the East. In the morning, when they woke up and went out to their outdoor facilities, they were surprised by some colorful gift boxes that hid rewarding surprises for them inside.

With this, the Zoology team carries out a special enrichment to guarantee the well-being of the animals. These gifts fulfill one function: activate their olfactory and visual senses with some of their favorite foods.

Play with the boxes, open them and discover that inside them are delicious pieces of fruits or vegetables has made meerkats, leopards, orangutans, porcupines or chimpanzees have enjoyed this stimulating experience for them. These sensory stimuli promote natural behaviors and provide each animal with instinctive activities such as foraging and hunting.

In the conservation of species it is essential to achieve and maintain the maximum well-being of animals, ensuring their quality of life and encouraging the behaviors they would normally have in their natural habitat.

The team that makes up animal parks like BIOPARC Fuengirola work to offer the best care to these animals. To do this, not only are their natural instincts kept active, but they form appropriate social groups with an appropriate enrichment program, nutritious and balanced diets, presented in a natural and interesting way, along with excellent veterinary care.
