ANIMAL WELFARE

PUY DU FOU'S COMMITMENT

Through its shows and with the utmost respect for animals, Puy du Fou celebrates the age-old bond between humans and animals.

Animal welfare is a priority for Puy du Fou, which is committed to caring for all its animals by tailoring its practices to their specific needs, from birth and throughout their life at Puy du Fou, on stage and off.

To guarantee animal welfare, Puy du Fou is committed to:

1-  Monitoring each animal individually and ensuring that every Talent working with animals knows each animal personally in order to provide care adapted to its species, physiology, activity, character and behaviour.

 

 

2-  Caring for its animals from birth, through all stages of their life and in their retirement.
