My name is Niko, and I live in Odsherred Zoo Rescue, home to over 600 animals. We give a safe home to rescue animals from all over Europe, many of whom have been victims of animal testing, the illegal pet trade, or neglect and abuse.
We have many different animals here in the rescue, ranging from our big cats, lynxes, lemurs, foxes, camels, chameleon, iguana, racoons, gibbons, marmosets, porcupines, goats, horses, llamas, servals, vervet monkeys, and many, many more.

Rescue animal stories:
One of the more recent rescue stories is Kato, the beautiful big cat. He is a Caracal or desert lynx and was rescued from a private person in french that kept him in his apartment.

The fur-farm foxes:
Another recent story is about the last fur-farm foxes in Denmark, where we were part of a group of foxes.

• Saving the Last Fur farm Foxes

Here at Odsherred Zoo Rescue, it is not only the most exotic animals like the big cats and foxes we rescue. We see many private people obtain animals that are either illegal pets or as small as guinea pigs and do not realize how big the commitment to caring for any animal can be. Because of that, the animals end up here in the rescue zoo, where we are ready to give them a good home.

We hope to educate and inspire with our animal rescue stories that we need to take better care of our animals and nature.

  1. It's good to explain those things, many people would look at those tiny enclosures and think "they're treating the animals so badly! This is a bad zoo!" When you're in fact helping them. People can't comprehend wanting a small space at first, most would say "I want the huge space right away" because they've never been through trauma.

  2. It's so true! I think some people forget that you need a middle ground between the tiny cage they've been in vs the huge one you want them to live in. I do the same with my guinea pigs, they come from the shelter healthy but find the big cage a bit intimidating so I have a middle-sized "hospital cage" for new piggies (or when an existing pig gets surgery) to get used to before they get into the big one.
