Our conservation projects
Casela has been committed to conservation education since its creation.
As a leisure park nestled in a natural setting, home to endemic plant species, with some animals roaming freely and others housed in enclosures, the park has, for 45 years, given both Mauritians and foreign visitors the opportunity to admire some species that are on the brink of extinction.
This is a constant challenge for the park, given the effects of climate change and the impact of human activities.
Today, Casela is entering a new phase by further investing in conservation education and committing in new ways to biodiversity.

Conservation
As a member of the Pan-African Association of Zoos and Aquaria (PAAZA), Casela Nature Parks enjoys manifold privileged exchanges with parks and zoos across the world. True to our founding vision, we are more than ever involved in the conservation and protection of endangered plant and animal species in the Mauritian territory. The endemic garden at Casela Nature Parks caters for the livelihood of 267 adult native trees from 52 different species among which 26 are endemic to Mauritius.
Since February 2015, our park has also found a new patron in Her Royal Highness Princess Stephanie of Monaco, who is known for her involvement in elephant protection in Asia.
