DoeZoo Insektenwereld

DoeZoo Insektenwereld and its collection

DoeZoo Insektenwereld is a zoo in Leens.

The focus is on insects, later widened to insect-eating plants and animals. It operates as a care zoo, where disabled people carry out day activities and supported work.

History

It opened in 1998 under the name Insektenwereld, having begun as a hobby and grown over the years into a small animal park. By 2003 the site was too small and had no room to grow, so a move was decided on.
