<Enrichment Team>


Behavioral enrichment for captive animals starts from regularly providing them with environmental stimuli, even if they are small. We believe that enrichment is valid no matter the scale, as long as our efforts could provide something out of the ordinary for animals in captivity.

Some of these animals are in bleak conditions where they cannot even get a whiff of fresh air and the number of them is rapidly increasing as more and more subpar exhibition facilities like indoor petting zoos are being built.

Although many of these animals won’t be able to experience nature throughout their lives, we hope that our work could return to them at least a small piece, a sense of the wild, all the while giving rise to a current of change for issues connected with animal welfare.
