Rescue Zoo is closed for the winter. Thank you for this year – see you again at Easter 2027!
Denmark's first and only rescue zoo for exotic animals in distress. Experience, learn, and support our mission.
Closed for the winter
The 2026 season is over and Rescue Zoo is now closed for the winter. A big thank you to everyone who visited us and supported the animals this year. It means the world to us and to the animals.
We open again at Easter 2027 and look forward to seeing you!
The animals are cared for every day all winter, and you can still support them from here.
We provide a safe and permanent home for exotic animals from research laboratories, the fur industry, illegal trade, and forced removals.
