A huge enrichment ball for DZG's big cats

Enrichment within a zoo environment is hugely beneficial for animal welfare by stimulating and encouraging natural hunting, tracking and foraging behaviours.

Our big cats - especially our Sumatran tigers and Asiatic lions -  love playing with large boomer balls, but they don’t last that long when there’s a 160 kg force batting it around!

We'd love to purchase a specifically made ball for lions and tigers which is incredibly robust and very large. 

Not only will we be able to cover it in different scents to tantalize their senses, we can also add food into drilled holes, making treat time extra fun!
 
Thank you in advance for your contribution - our cats will be very grrr-ateful!
