À propos du programme

Being a part of this projects offers you a real animal experience where you can be a real zookeeper and you can expand your experience with (exotic) animals! You can help us with the daily care of abandoned and mistreated animals. Beside that, you can enjoy the nature of the beautiful country named Hungary!

About us
Repzootic Animal Center is a sanctuary and educational center in Hungary, nearby Pécs. We give a last home to exotic 'pets' who were abandoned or mistreated. We also take in Hungarian wildlife to release them in the nature again. Our mission is to educate people about nature and wildlife and these exotic 'pets'. 
I am a Belgian girl with crazy dreams who moved to Hungary to start in this education and experience center with my very loved animals. I'm in the animal business for years and still love every single creature. I have a lot of experience with exotic animals and would love to teach you what I know and show you that no dream is too much to create.

The Repzootic Animal Center is expanding. That means there are a lot of cages to build and a lot of new animals to arrive. Repzootic Animal Center is a non-profit organisation who gives educational lessons in whole Europe. We survive by giving these lessons and by organisation events. 

Our animals

We have a lot of different animals at our site. Most of them are small mammals like foxes, wolf-dogs, porcupines, mongooses, marsupials, small cats, rodents and more. But also reptiles, amphibians and  birds live at our center. This amount of animals can teach you a lot about their needs, husbandry and more. A very special experience for any animal lover!

Friends for life
What's a better friend than a friend who shares your interests? We work with a lot of volunteers and students, so it's possible you won't be alone in this job. If you share an accommodation and help each other as zookeepers, you can learn a lot and, above all, have a lot of fun!

Hungary is a country where you have plenty of time. We don't rush and we don't scream. We love our animals and we give them the best care we can. After that, without rushing, we can do some other maintaining jobs but we can also love our nature and country. 

We hope to see you soon!

Sur le projet

Repzootic Animal Center is a non profit organisation that houses a lot of exotic animals in Hungary to educate people about them.

Rencontrez votre hôte

Organisation
Repzootic Animal Center is a  non profit organisation to educate people about wildlife and about owning an (exotic) pet. Repzootic is an official zoo and sanctuary located in Erdősmecske, Hungary.

Location
Nature, nature and more nature in the amazing country named Hungary where Repzootic is located. At a 30 min drive of Pécs, in the South of Hungary, you can find a small but very pretty village names Erdősmecske. Surrounded by forrest you can find a lot of endemic species out there like deer, foxes and jackals.

Our animals
In Repzootic we house a lot of exotic animals. You can think about foxes, wolfdogs, porcupines, sugar gliders, servals, coatis, a lot of reptiles, fishes, birds,...
All these animals are born in captivity and most of them are saved from people who didn't know how to care for them. We take in all these refugees and try to give them a good and last home.

Our goal
At Repzootic we want to show people the beauty of misunderstood animals and we want to educate them to be good owners of (exotic) pets.
We don't want to show people lions, tigers and elephants, but let them meet unknown animals like martens, foxes and more.

Staying at Repzootic
At the site of the center, you can find our nice Hungarian guest house with a kitchen, bathroom, living room and shared bedrooms.
