ANIMAL PARK SPORMAGGIORE:
The brown bears in the Spormaggiore Animal Park live in conditions very similar to their wild counterparts. Their fence extends for about 7000 m2 in a quiet and wooded area.
Next to them there are wolves, in an area that spans 3,500 m2 of forest. Two large strategically placed observatories will allow you to get a close look at them in semi-natural conditions. Within the two fenced off areas are large trees like beeches, spruces and larches, as well as bushy areas interspersed with open areas and even a small stream with pools and small waterfalls to recreate their typical environment. There is a 30 m2 aviary housing eagle owls, but you can also see wild cats, lynxes and foxes. The Animal Park is also a clinic to look after animals from zoos or facilities unfit to provide them with decent living conditions.
In Trentino the Park is unique in structure and philosophy: it has long-term projects that aim at preserving the Alpine fauna.
