Zoo Studies

In this activity, we visit the Hajdú Zoo in Keszthely, where you can meet special animals such as capybaras, as well as other exotic species. During the week, we get a glimpse into the daily lives of the zoo’s residents. You will learn how feeding is carried out, how their environment is maintained, and how the daily tasks are organized, while discovering lots of interesting and exciting facts about the animals, their habits, and their needs.

The week begins with getting to know each other, and then each day focuses on a different animal group, exploring their care, needs, and behavior in more detail. During the practical part, you can try your hand as a real animal caretaker and experience how the care of a diverse group of animals is managed, as well as how a full day at the zoo is structured. The classes are led by experienced animal caretakers, and the small group format ensures that everyone can actively participate – the most enthusiastic campers may even take on extra tasks.

During the second 110-minute block in the morning, the zoo experience can be combined with another class, while in the afternoon plenty of free-time and interactive activities await you back at the camp.
