20 themed territories for a trip around the world

Covering 45 hectares, the ZooParc de Beauval recreates 20 territories where 800 species of animals live together.

For example :

• the African Savannah: a 3-hectare plain where you can admire giraffes, zebras and white rhinoceroses
• the Australian Greenhouse: as well as the Tasmanian devil and kangaroos, this is the only place in France where you can see koalas!
• Vivariums and Aquariums: would you rather see adorable turtles or frightening 4-metre long scorpions and snakes?
• Chinese Heights: fall in love with France's only giant pandas! The female Huan Huan gave birth to twins on 2 August 2021, Huanlili and Yaundudu.
