Zoos today adhere to rigorous welfare standards, prioritizing the physical and mental health of their animals. Every aspect of an animal’s life, from nutrition to medical care, is carefully managed to ensure their well-being. Many zoos have enrichment programs, where animals engage in activities that encourage mental stimulation and mimic natural behaviors.

Specialized diets, healthcare routines, and enrichment toys are provided, catering to the unique needs of each species. Veterinary teams are on-site to monitor health, conduct regular check-ups, and intervene when necessary. This focus on welfare transforms the zoo experience, ensuring animals live in comfort while visitors witness animals in environments that reflect their natural behaviors.
