What is a mobile zoo?

A mobile zoo is a type of zoo that travels from place to place, rather than being a fixed location. The mobile zoo typically brings a variety of animals to events, schools, parties, care homes or other locations for people to see and interact with.

Mobile zoos can be a way for people to learn about different types of animals and their habitats, as well as to experience the joy of seeing and touching the animals up close. They can also provide educational programs and presentations, such as wildlife conservation or animal behaviour topics.

Mobile zoos can vary in size and the types of animals they bring, but typically include smaller animals like reptiles/Amphibians, small mammals and invertebrates.

It’s important to note that mobile zoos, like any other facility that houses animals, should prioritise the welfare of their animals. Proper care, nutrition, and living conditions should be provided for the animals, and they should only be handled by trained professionals who prioritise the animals’ safety and well-being.
