Round, shapeless, textured and almost always smelly!

Filthy, smelly and disgusting? Animal droppings can, however, be very useful and provide a wealth of information. They can be round, misshapen, hard or soft, but animal droppings have many functions: whether it's to help them find their way home, find a mate or simply mark their territory. A very original excremental visit during which you'll learn about different animal species from a new angle, both fragrant and fascinating!

Discovery workshop and guided tour of the site.

For elementary school students, ecological paper-making workshop using recycled paper and hippopotamus dung as part of the 3:30 p.m. program schedule.
