Animals at Bayern-Park

The lynx, the animal of the year 2011, can hardly be seen in the wild anymore nowadays. A little bit hidden though, one pair has been living in the park for some 15 years now. >

When the park was founded, a herd of sika deer moved to the area in Reisbach. You can find them on a large meadow in the rear part of the park. >

A herd of 5 midget ponies lives directly above the Twinbob toboggan run and together with them an old miniature donkey. >

The Cameroon sheep which originally come from West Africa live in direct neighbourhood to the pygmy goats and not only the newborn sheep are playful and curious. >

Eight pygmy goats, who live in a quiet surrounding beneath the branches of the conifer forest, make for a good mood among the little as well as the grown up visitors. >

Bayern-Park’s chamois live reclusively on a clearing in the dark forest. The medium size, goat-like hoofed animals have their enclosure adjacent to the lynx and the sheep. >

It all began with them: the red and the fallow deer were originally not planned to be more than a mere hobby. However, as evermore animal loving families came by with their children, the hobby turned into the Vilstaler Deer Park … >

Between the Olymp of the Animals and the Twinbob Toboggan Run, the exuberant magots live in a spacious enclosure with diverse opportunities to rest and to play. >

The timid St. Hubertus deer with their white coat proudly show themselves a little bit off the turmoil in the park and enjoy the tranquility of the adjacent forest. >
