What is the Boréalie?

The Boréalie encompasses the land where the average temperature of the coldest month is lower than -3 degrees Celsius. It corresponds to the Northern part of the globe where the ground freezes more than three months out of the year.

The Boréalie spreads out from Canada to Alaska; from the North of Russia to certain Nordic areas of some countries of Europe and Asia, Japan in particular.

The evolution of the Zoo sauvage towards the Boréalie

In 1995, the Zoo sauvage parted with its collection of exotic animals in order to devote itself to Northern North-American wildlife. Since then, the Zoo sauvage has continued its evolution and is now fully devoted to the Boréalie, therefore specializing in the Northern part of the globe.


The Zoo sauvage now welcomes in its collection exotic Northern species such as the Japanese Macaque, the Amur Tiger and the Bactrian Camel.
