Brussels Animal Park
Our Residents
At Brussels Animal Park, we take pride in providing a safe haven for an extraordinary array of species, each with its own unique story. Our residents fall into three main groups, reflecting our commitment to conservation, welfare, and the ethical care of wildlife. Together, these animals make up the heart of our park, connecting visitors to the wonder of the natural world and the importance of protecting it.

Surplus Animals from Other Parks
As part of a global effort to ensure sustainable populations in human care, we welcome animals from other parks that can no longer accommodate them. These residents thrive in their new home, where we provide enriching environments tailored to their needs.
Non-Breeding Program Participants
Some animals in zoos do not participate in breeding programs, whether due to health, age, or genetics. At our park, these animals enjoy a fulfilling life, serving as ambassadors to educate visitors about their species and inspire conservation efforts.
Rescued Animals
Many of our residents come to us from challenging circumstances, such as illegal trade, private captivity, or injuries that prevent them from returning to the wild. Here, they find a sanctuary where they can recover and live out their lives with care and dignity.
