Animal Enrichment Programs
Animal enrichment programs are initiatives designed to enhance the physical and mental well-being of animals in captivity by providing stimulating and diverse activities. These programs include a variety of toys, environments, and challenges that encourage natural behaviors such as exploring, foraging, and problem-solving. The goal is to prevent boredom, reduce stress, and promote overall health, making animals’ lives more engaging and fulfilling. Enrichment can be tailored to different species and individual needs, supporting their psychological and physical vitality in zoos, aquariums, shelters, or research facilities.
