ZooParc de Beauval

About

The Beauval ZooPark, more commonly known as the Beauval Zoo or, more simply, Beauval, is a French zoo park located in Saint-Aignan in the Loir-et-Cher department, in the Centre-Val de Loire region. It has about 35,000 animals on 45 hectares. Created in 1980 by Françoise Delord, he is currently run by his son, Rodolphe Delord, and managed by his family, which owns most of the capital of the Park.

Beauval was often the first zoological park to present certain animals in France, which contributed to its fame and development. He was the first to present leucic, white tigers and white lions in the 1990s. Even today, many of the species presented are rare in France, such as okapi, lamantin, Goodfellow's dendrolag, Tasmania's devil and Indian rhinoceros, or even unique in France, such as giant panda, Roxellane's rhinopithèque and koala.

In 2017, Beauval's zoopark became the first French park, and the fourth in the world, to successfully reproduce the giant panda. Four greenhouses present birds, great monkeys, lazy, reptiles, lamantines and Australasian animals...
