About us We are a refuge for unfortunate wild animals.
The Zoo of the Pyrenees Foundation is a non-profit organization. We take in and care for abused or injured wild animals. If possible, we return healthy and strong animals to the wild.
But sometimes returning them to the wild would doom them to certain death. In this case we give them a new home in our wild animal refuge. According to their disposition we make them participate in educational activities oriented to the public or we give them the opportunity to breed in captivity. Their young are released.
Our work

Rescue and recovery of injured or abused animals

Refuge for wild animals unable to return to the wild

Breeding and reintroduction of animals into the wild

Environmental education and awareness
Our purpose
Create a community that respects nature,
that understands the vulnerable balance that reigns over the environment,
a community that fights to protect it.
The protection of nature for us
means much more than discussing the problem.
It is a transformative life change.
It is the education of our children.
It is done locally, nationally and globally.
This is the heartbeat of the Zoo of the Pyrenees.

And all of you

We do not receive any financial support from the administration for the rescue and maintenance of the animals. It is thanks to you that we can take care of them.
In return, we guarantee an unforgettable experience with native fauna.

It does not matter your age, where you live or if you have financial resources or not. We can all help the wild animals of Spain.
You can make a one-time donation, become a member, or opt for a fun fundraising way.

Throughout the year we welcome trainees. They help us to carry out daily tasks and are an important part of the team.
We heartily appreciate the selfless work of the people who make this world a better place for all living beings.
There are many ways to collaborate with us. Choose one that represents you or where you can best show off.
