The best animal parks and aquariums Peru

This center was originally created to receive baby manatees orphaned by hunting. Total success! Some have returned to the wild and visits are now numerous to see the youngest playing in their pool or receiving a bottle. The project has developed and now welcomes other species such as turtles, monkeys, sloths and other victims of animal trafficking in the region. A beautiful project to support.
