Offsprings in muntjacs family
Our job is to combine animal welfare with safety and comfort for visitors.
Animals provided with everything they need, create families and groups and make us and our visitors happy as children. And one of our successes was the birth of little Mia – muntjac deer cub.
Although Mia receives herbal supplements she is still breastfed by her mother Milka.
