Wild Animals

After a management of about 4 months, the lioness can give birth to up to 4 cubs which, during the first days of their life, will be blind and therefore entirely dependent on their mother. Until the age of 4 weeks they will be kept away from the group and will feed only on their mother's milk. After that they will mingle with the rest of the group.

The Papo magpie is a rather large bird and is easily recognizable thanks to its white and black plumage and its characteristic long tail. It has been said to be talkative because of its cry, bold because it approaches dwellings and remains on the ground to feed while being wary ready to fly away at the slightest noise. Thanks to its thick and powerful beak, it searches the ground to find its small prey.

Isn't it gigantic? From its height of 5.50 meters, the giraffe dominates the savannah and holds the title of "highest terrestrial mammal". Easily recognizable by its very long neck, the giraffe is tawny with large orange spots and has 2 small horns called ossicones at the top of its head. This herbivore loves leaves (especially acacia) which can graze on the treetops. She can eat more than 50 kg of leaves per day! It also has a very long tongue that can measure more than 50 cm.

The Papo marigold butterfly, easily recognizable by its orange-yellow wings edged in black, is ready to take flight by spreading its wings to spot clover, alfalfa or a flower and feed. Its flight is fast and it always lands with closed wings to forage. It appreciates hot and flowery sites and does not survive frost or prolonged humidity.

The okapi Papo is an intriguing herbivore that hides in the mountains and forests of Congo. Discreet and solitary, it is first related to a zebra because of its stripes on its legs. In fact, it is one of the last ancestors of the giraffe with its hind legs shorter than the front ones, its thin muzzle and large small ears with developed hearing. Its species is threatened due to deforestation.

The robin is a passerine species. It looks like a small plump bird with relatively short wings reaching painfully to the middle of its tail
