Unusual: witness the feeding of the felines at the Jardin des Plantes Menagerie

Published by Margot de Sortiraparis · Published on October 2nd, 2023 at 06:56 p.m.
On certain days of the week, the Jardin des Plantes Menagerie invites you to take part in an exceptional experience in the fauverie, in the heart of the Jardin des Plantes Menagerie, by attending a feline meal.

From now on, visitors who come to observe the birds, mammals, aquatic animals and other reptiles living in the Menagerie du Jardin des Plantes will have the chance to witness something quite out of the ordinary: take part in the feeding of the Menagerie's felines during an unusual animation (and at no extra charge on the admission ticket).

Although the Menagerie only has two felines in total, the Chinese panther and the long-haired panther, you can attend the feeding of these two residents from the other side of the world, every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday from March 1, 2023. The feeding of these wild animals, cousins of our domestic cats, always takes place at the same time, in the evening, around half an hour before the Menagerie closes (at 5:30 p.m.), and directly in the fauverie of the Jardin des Plantes.

The whole family will be able to find out what these carnivorous big cats eat, and how much they eat... And you'll have the chance to ask any questions you may have to the caretakers, who will be on hand to mediate with young and old alike! So, if you're visiting the Jardin des Plantes Menagerie, don't miss this opportunity to meet the felines up close!
