All these animals live in harmony with each other and are indicative of the rich fauna of the island. They are friendly to humans and visitors can even feed some of them by hand!

A snack bar is located inside the park that serves a variety of beverages, from tea and coffee to ice-cold beer, in addition to a handful of snack options.
