Explore Faunia, a vast thematic and natural space in Madrid, home to over 1,200 animals from 152 different species. Spread across 16 hectares, Faunia features 4 extraordinary ecosystems and 15 themed areas, each meticulously designed to replicate the natural habitats of its inhabitants. From the tropical heat of The Jungle to the icy landscapes of The Poles, Faunia offers a unique opportunity to experience diverse wildlife and ecosystems in one place.
Begin your journey in The Jungle, where you will encounter manatees, macaws, toucans, and various species of titis amidst the heat and rain of a tropical storm. Next, venture into The Poles Ecosystem, home to over 100 penguins of 6 different species, and witness their underwater races in Europe's largest Polar Ecosystem. Continue to the African Forest, inspired by Madagascar, and meet three species of lemurs and numerous brightly coloured birds. Finally, explore the Temperate Forest, housing animals from temperate regions like the muntjac, mazama, and demoiselle crane.
Faunia's themed areas offer even more adventures. Enter a nocturnal zone illuminated by the full moon to see ocelots, two-toed sloths, and aardvarks. Cross a karstic cave in Mysteries Under the Earth to discover creatures like naked mole-rats and frilled lizards. Walk through an Australian meadow to meet Bennett's wallabies, visit a mangrove with Nile crocodiles, or explore areas with venomous animals such as snakes, spiders, and jellyfish.
Throughout your visit, enjoy educational activities and talks about marine mammals, birds of prey, and other representative species. Get up close to sea lions, manatees, penguins, pelicans, and crocodiles in interactive sessions. Faunia also emphasises conservation and awareness of endangered species, collaborating with the Parques Reunidos Foundation and EAZA to promote environmental care and respect for the animal kingdom. Your visit to Faunia promises to be a memorable and educational experience for the whole family.
