About Jardin d'Acclimatation
The Jardin d'Acclimatation in the Bois de Boulogne has kept animals since 1860, when the naturalist Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire persuaded Empress Eugenie to found a park where the world's fauna and flora could be acclimatised and shown to Parisians. There are no lions now: the 450 residents are alpacas, lorikeets and other exotic birds in the Grande Voliere, peafowl and ducks loose on the paths, a grey crowned crane, guinea pigs, a pig and bees in their apiary.
The Ferme Saint-Hilaire, thatched and half-timbered in Normandy style, is the only teaching farm inside Paris proper and holds rabbits, guinea pigs, Rove and pygmy goats, Ouessant sheep, donkeys, a henhouse and the hives. Keeper-led sessions with the pygmy goats run four times a day and the alpaca enclosure opens from 1 May. Visitors are asked not to feed the animals. Access is included in the garden ticket.
Visitors can park at the designated parking areas near the entrance of the Jardin d'Acclimatation. Parking is paid, so be sure to bring cash or a credit card. It's advisable to arrive early, especially on weekends, to secure a spot as it can get busy.
