The Park’s core values of conservation, education, and research have ensured that we are uniquely placed to foster greater public understanding of the threats to plant and animal habitats and decreasing global biodiversity.Fota Wildlife Park has made considerable investment in the past 10 years upgrading its infrastructure including an indoor Giraffe viewing area, the Madagascan Village and the Asian Sanctuary which features Asian lions, Sumatran tigers, and Indian Rhino. Fota Wildlife Park opened to the public in June 1983 and recently celebrated four decades of Conservation in Action by completing the sustainably built, Education, Conservation and Research Centre, co-funded by the Government via the OPW.See www.fotawildlife.ie for more.
