Tierpark Eilenburg — Zoo in Eilenburg

Tierpark Eilenburg and its collection

Tierpark Eilenburg is a zoo in Eilenburg, Germany.

About four hectares are divided into three areas: a tropical house, a section for domestic and pet animals, and a wetland-and-woodland area.

History

The first pens, for red deer, wild boar, beavers and goats, date from 1959, and three years later the town added a stable block and a small service yard. In 1975 a storey was added to the stable, staff rooms were fitted out and the first aquariums and terrariums were bought. The town's sponsor ship MS Eilenburg donated three bonnet macaques, which moved into a purpose-built heated house.

Animals and collection

The stock includes bonnet macaques, cotton-top tamarins, green iguanas, smooth-fronted caimans and green-winged macaws. Through the Euro-Nerz association the park joins the European breeding project for the mink.

Exhibits

Its exhibits include Naturlehrpfad, Affen-Freianlage, Haustierhaus and Tropicana.
