Families visiting Monaco’s Princess Antoinette Park have some new residents to meet this summer, with two hens and four ducks joining the park’s popular animal garden.

The animals have been transferred from the Monaco Zoological Garden, which is currently closed for renovation works, and will be cared for at the municipal park during the refurbishment.

“Thanks to the generous proposal from the Monaco Zoological Garden, whom I would like to warmly thank, and as part of its temporary closure for renovation works, we were delighted to welcome two new hens and four ducks,” said Axelle Amalberti Verdino, Deputy Mayor responsible for City Events.

“This wonderful collaboration allows us to continue our commitment to animal welfare while offering families a lively and welcoming animal garden.”

The Princess Antoinette Park animal garden, managed by Monaco’s City Hall, is a popular destination for local families and visitors alike, providing children with the opportunity to discover a variety of animals in a peaceful green setting.

The new arrivals are now settling into their home and can already be seen by visitors exploring the park.
