Raccoon House
Curious, intelligent, and playful raccoons can be observed in this area in an environment similar to their natural habitat. They offer both fun and educational moments to visitors.
Raccoon House, as one of Emaar Aquarium’s most cheerful and lively thematic areas, reveals the cute face of terrestrial life. In this section, raccoons known for their curious nature and playful demeanor welcome visitors in a living space that does not make them miss their natural environment.
The interior design of the area is arranged so that raccoons can exhibit their natural behaviors. Thanks to tree branches, climbing bridges, tunnels where they can hide, and areas open to exploration, raccoons are constantly on the move. This offers visitors the opportunity to observe how agile and intelligent they are both on land and at height.
One of the most striking features of raccoons is that they use their front paws like hands. This allows them to hold objects, turn toys, and open lids. Visitors can witness moments when they display these extraordinary abilities. Eating fruit or nuts with their hands during feeding times creates interesting and fun scenes especially for children.
In the informative panels located in the Raccoon House, information is provided on many topics such as raccoons’ habitats, feeding habits, differences in day and night behavior, and threats they face in nature. There is also awareness-raising information about our impact on nature and how our waste disposal habits affect the lives of such animals.
The Raccoon House combines entertainment with learning, offering both children and adults the opportunity to look more closely at nature and empathize.
