Creator of the Écouves Wildlife Park

Vincent is an active and passionate man…
It takes a lot of energy to manage 12 hectares of parkland and some 400 animals…
Bennett’s Wallaby kangaroos, camels and dromedaries from Asia and Africa, Japanese deer, European bison, ostriches and other exotic birds live happily side by side!
This native of Orne has been attached to animals since his earliest childhood. As an adolescent, he bred over a hundred original breeds (zebus, llamas, Hungarian sheep, etc.). With his business degree in hand, he set up and presented a project for an animal park and, at the age of 22, won the 1st business creation competition in the Orne region, which rewards entrepreneurship.
Taking advantage of this great opportunity, he opened a wildlife park at Écouves in August 2006 and now employs 8 people. They are all multi-skilled carers, helping to look after each animal, whose well-being is their priority. This father of 2, who lives with his family at the heart of the park, says that the next generation is well assured!
