My favorite place in Asturias
So much fun I had to go three times! It's hard to describe just how incredible this little gem is, one of the most fantastic places I've ever been. Definitely recommend a visit! Can be compared to world renowned zoos in quality and experience for a fraction of the price. Enjoy the opportunity to interact with the most spectacular animals- birds who speak Spanish and eat out of your hand, monkeys, ferrets and lemurs that will gladly take snacks provided from the front counter for a minimal cost. There are turtles, lynx, and several creatures I've never seen before like coati and marten. Many of which were abandoned, confiscated, or rescued to retire in peace in paradise. Beautiful plants and natural, well made habitats; quite the sanitary. What makes this truely amazing is not only the quaint size, accessibility, and location in the picturesque mountains of Asturias, but the genuine quality of care that the animals receive. The staff is kind, generous, and attentive. Absolutely incredible experience overall, and I can’t thank you enough for opening this beautiful wildlife center to the public and to the animals in need. Muchos Gracias for sharing your home and the special treasures within.

Great visit
Spent a lovely morning with my grandson today visiting your very special little zoo. The care you are giving these rescued animals is second to none, have visited many zoos in my lifetime including world famous San Diego and Berlin but you are up there with these and wish you and your animals the very best if wishes.
