We are very happy to announce a second edition of La Piñateria at home!
Not only was this activity highly appreciated by our members last year, it also enabled us to collect a considerable number of piñatas for our animals. These piñatas are a true delight for Biodôme denizens and their keepers!

It’s time to get your hands a little messy to contribute to the well-being of Biodôme animals. These creatures need your help! Take
advantage of March Break to make the papier maché piñatas used for behavioural enrichment. The enrichment enhances the physical and psychological well-being of animals in captivity by providing
them with a multitude of opportunities to make choices. Come get your piñata-making kit, follow the on-line instructions and bring us your masterpieces so we can give them to the animals.

Turn yourselves into little elves so you can give unforgettable gifts to the Biodôme animals!  Tap into your creative potential to decorate the surprise-filled gift boxes and watch the animals open them on site! The Living Collections team is counting on you to assess the animals’ reactions to the gifts they receive and confirm if the goal of the enrichment activity was reached. This experience will no doubt  fill you with the magic of Christmas…in Biodôme style 🙂
