Harbour porpoise feeding
Having fun while eating! When the porpoises are fed, the caretakers show how Michael and Dennis are trained. Training is necessary for the daily health checks. For example, the caretakers have the animals roll on their back to check their bellies. Or open their mouths to smell their breath. The porpoise is rewarded with a fish. Come meet these super friendly animals! Daily at 10.30 a.m. and 1.30 p.m. The presentations are in Dutch however the caretakers are availble for questions at the end of the presentation.
