Non-domesticated exotic animals in zoos

AAP is an associate member of the European Association of Zoo's and Aquaria (EAZA).

AAP believes that zoos have legitimacy, provided they play a serious role in the education about animals they show, and contribute to the protection of certain species.

Some rehabilitated animals from the AAP rescue centre are outplaced in zoos. We do this because it is not feasible to return these animals to nature, and because we're convinced that their well-being will be improved by living in the zoo. Apart from this, AAP cooperates with zoos to improve the well-being of their animals.
