    (Translated by Google) The approach of this animal park is commendable. The entry price is quite high compared to what is offered (to date anyway) but it is justified in my opinion, it is for a good cause. Workshops for new residents are underway. The staff is very welcoming. The toilets are plentiful and it is clean. There is a box for changing babies next to each one. The parking lot is very big. A note on this subject: pedestrian access from the parking lot to the park entrance is via the car lane which is not very wide (barely wider than a car). A pedestrian crossing would be a good thing. You have to encourage this project by going there, talking about this one, so that it can evolve and save other animals (from human stupidity) as much as possible. (Original) Le démarche de ce parc animalier est louable. Le prix d'entrée est assez élevé par rapport à ce qui est proposé (à ce jour en tout cas) mais cela est justifié à mon sens, c'est pour la bonne cause. Des chantiers pour de nouveaux pensionnaires sont en cours. Le personnel est très accueillant. Les toilettes sont nombreuses et c'est propre. Il y a un box pour changer les bébés à coté de chacune. Le parking est très grand. Une remarque à ce sujet : l'accès piéton du stationnement à l'entrée du parc se fait par la voie de circulation des voitures qui n'est pas très large (à peine plus large qu'une voiture). Un passage réservé au piéton serait une bonne chose. Il faut encourager ce projet en y allant, en parlant de celui-ci, afin qu'il puisse évoluer et sauver d'autres animaux (de la bêtise humaine) autant que possible.

    (Translated by Google) The magical refuge for animals who are lovingly greeted by it's founders after being treated so badly by humans. Well done for all the investment that this requires. Take advantage of this lovely visit which is also educational and which will help all these animals for a low price of 17 euros. The only downside is the lack of shade in summer because the trees have not yet been able to grow enough and wheelchair access is a bit complicated with the stones. Go there without hesitation. (Original) Le refuge magique pour les animaux qui sont accueillis avec amours par c'est fondateurs après avoir été si mal traités par les humains. Un grand bravo pour tous l'investissement que cela demande. Profiter de cette joli visite qui est aussi pédagogique et qui aidera tous ces animaux pour un prix modique de 17 euros. Seul bémol le manque d'ombre l'été car les arbres n'ont pas encore pu pousser suffisamment et l'accès fauteuil roulant un peu compliqué avec les cailloux. Allez y sans hésiter.

    (Translated by Google) Superb infrastructure, top-notch staff from the manager to the trainers and through all the employees. Animals, whose history is too often painful, seem happy and peaceful. All at a reasonable price including snacks. An excellent day there and a good deed as a bonus! (Original) Des infrastructures superbes, un personnel au top du directeur aux soigneurs et passant par tous les employés. Les animaux, dont l'histoire est trop souvent pénible semblent heureux et paisibles. Le tout à un prix raisonnable y compris la petite restauration. Une excellente journée sur place et une bonne action en prime !

    Très bon après midi passée à La Tanière Zoo Refuge. Félicitations aux fondateurs et au personnel pour cette formidable initiative. La compassion ❤️‍🩹 se réveille en nous lorsque nous découvrons l histoire de chaque animale au travers de pancartes informatives. Certaines histoires sont réellement poignante. Je ne peux aucunement.concevoir de critiquer ne serait ce qu’un peu La Tanière tant le fond et la mise en œuvre du projet est respectable. Citoyenne, citoyen, allez dépenser votre argent à La Tanière plutôt que d acheter les dernières oreillettes Apple. Longue vie au projet et aux animaux 🙌

    (Translated by Google) Great !! I went there about 8 years ago and haven't been back since today .... what a metamorphosis !!! I left an educational farm 8 years ago to find a real zoo ... at the gates of Chartres. Concept of the zoo / refuge to applaud! The interventions of the caregivers perfectly explain this concept to us. Congratulations to the volunteers for this work that pays off today. Elephants, bears, tigers and lions welcome us among the monkeys, sea lions and other birds in the aviary. Very good idea also of inflatable games for children at the end of the course! Children and parents delighted with the day spent! Can't wait to see what the future expansion will give !! Let people know !!! Well done! (Original) Formidable!! J'y suis allée y a 8 ans environ et pas revenu depuis aujourd'hui.... quelle métamorphose !!! J'ai quitté une ferme pédagogique il y a 8 ans pour retrouver un vrai zoo... aux portes de Chartres. Concept du zoo/refuge à applaudir! Les interventions des soignants nous expliquent parfaitement ce concept. Bravo aux bénévoles pour ce travail qui paie aujourd'hui. Éléphants, ours, tigres et lions nous accueillent entre les singes, otaries et autres oiseaux de la volière. Très bonne idée aussi des jeux gonflables pour les enfants en fin de parcours ! Enfants et parents ravis de la journée passée! Hâte de voir ce que donnera la future extension!! A faite connaître !!! Bravo!

    (Translated by Google) Extraordinary !!! A magnificent involvement. I loved. I came on purpose from the Lyonnaise region and I did well. We see that all animals are the priority of the refuge. All the staff are pleasant. What a great experience. (Original) Extraordinaire !!! Une magnifique implication. J'ai adoré. Je suis venue exprès de la région Lyonnaise et j'ai bien fait. On voit que tous les animaux sont la priorité du refuge. Tout le personnel est agréable. Quelle belle expérience.

    (Translated by Google) I was able to visit the park during the night and we are delighted with my son. It was a pleasant evening. The staff at the shelter are great and we really feel the love the caregivers have for their residents. Congratulations and thank you to Mrs. and Mr. Violas for the dedication to animals. (Original) J'ai pu visiter le parc a l'occasion de la nocturne et nous en sommes ravis avec mon fils. Ce fût une agréable soirée. Le personnel du refuge est super et nous ressentons bien l'amour des soigneurs pour leurs pensionnaires. Un grand bravo et merci à Mme et Mr Violas pour le dévouement porté aux animaux.

    Amazing place! Animals have a lot of space, there are section where we can touch animals (ponies, goats, alpacas..). There is an information about every animal- why they are there. It’s truly heartwarming to see that they can be finally in a happy place 😊 (Capybara on the picture doesn’t look very happy, it was super hot that day😅)

    This was a wonderful day out with the children. The zoo was well laid out with plenty to see. There were a wide range of animals including sea lions, elephants, camels, tigers, lions, bears and more. The animals have often been rescued and saved from testing or circuses. The zoo had lots of toilets spaced around the zoo and a few food outlets. The main food outlet had a great selection of food with space to eat inside and out. There was also bouncy castles and a maze. A brilliant day out!

    La Taniere is perfect!! They really give animals a second chance. Animals from circus, medical laboratory or even people who treat them bad, everyone finds place...

    Loved the place. The animals variaty and set up is great. Would be nice to have a visit path through the animals shelter. So even if they are sleeping and cosy, we could admire their habitat. Only 4 stars as food was very limited and when you come with kids, i expected to buy proper food and snacks. But only end up with a food truck serving crisps and sugary treats only, a bit disappointing and frustrating.

    Mediocre. Few animals. Several pavilions are still under construction. It takes literally 2 hours to see everything. Food is expensive and there are limited choices. I don't think I will come back here again or recommend this place."

    What an amazing place, pain's you to know the animals stories but huge respect to the family for putting their lives into saving animals in distress.

    Hieno paikka, jossa eläimet saavat olla turvallisessa ympäristössä. Siisti alue, hyvät wc- ja vauvanhoitotilat. Mukava ravintola ja kiva matkamuistomyymälä

    Wonderful set-up with a wide range of animals saved from some very drastic conditions. Park is much bigger than you would expect and very well laid out. Great time of year to visit as nobody around. Lots more animals to come so good reason to go back. Lots of parking space and picnic area in the park.

    Une journée très réussie avec nos petits enfants qui ont comme nous vraiment trouvé cette formidable idée de sauver des animaux et des espèces . Merci aussi d'avoir prévu des espaces jeux et pique-nique. De plus nous avons eu la chance d'avoir une météo favorable. Je recommande la tanière.

    J'ai assisté au concert des années 80 et je peux vous dire que c'était super bien avec une ambiance de dingue. Merci pour le spectacle, surtout que le billet et les bénéfices sont reversés pour la cause animale... Bravo
