The words “acquaintance with wildlife” sound very attractive because acquaintance is not looking at pictures in a book but direct contact with nature. All conditions for such contact have been created in the Safari Zoo Mallorca Park, located near the resort of Cala Millor. If your child strives to stroke all the surrounding dogs and cats, he or she will definitely like this park.
Safari Zoo Mallorca consists of two parts — the safari park, where the animals graze freely, and the zoo, where the animals are kept in cages. The outdoor area is only accessible by car or sightseeing train. You can see the horned, tailed, striped, spotted savannah animals in their natural habitat. Zebras and antelopes pay little attention to vehicles, but monkeys are very keenly interested in visitors.
And if it suits you that a baboon sits next to you along the way, collects treats from everyone, and immediately starts eating them, then you will like travelling by train. The truth is that the train has no windows, and the monkeys can jump onto it on the spot. Hide valuables or leave them in a car with closed windows to avoid surprises.
Large and dangerous animals are kept in enclosures. In Mallorca's safari park you will see elephants, hippos, rhinos, giraffes, lions, tigers. There are also many birds here, from ostriches to parrots. Some animals participate in small shows, and predatory cats are included in the number of artists.
The park's territory is not too extensive; the tour takes no more than an hour, although children can linger near the large enclosure with monkeys and lemurs. You can extend the pleasure of the trip on the playground, where the theme of animals is played excitingly.
10 km from the safari park is the Drach Caves — one of the most beautiful sights of the resort of Mallorca.
