Activities at Serval Wildlife
Interacting with animals
At Serval Wildlife, you are given an hour to interact with the wild animals in a very close way. You can feed them, take pictures, and enjoy moments with them.
The science behind animals’ behavior
According to science, animals have two mindsets that guide them in seeking out behavioral interactions: survival-critical interactions and situation-related behaviors. Survival-critical interactions are behaviors related to survival that are genetically embedded. These include the food search, running away from predators, and maintaining a healthy state. When all these are fulfilled, the animals respond to situations, including interacting with humans and other surrounding animals. Animals at Serval Wildlife get all their basic needs met and are treated with care to maintain their healthy state. This enables them to be social with visitors.
The animal keepers at Serval Wildlife prioritize the safety, health, and welfare of animals. They will guide you on the behaviors required to interact positively with the animals. The animals themselves interact with guests according to their will and leave the moment they want.
The keepers may interrupt an interaction when they feel the guest is not showing special care to the animal. The interaction may be terminated if the animals are uncomfortable due to any circumstances. However, we at Focus East Africa Safaris ensure that the interaction is positive so that our clients can enjoy it. Here are some hints to a positive interaction with animals at Serval Wildlife:
- If the animal shows signs of leaving the interaction, let it go. The animal can choose to stay or leave, so do not follow it.
- Stay close to a caretaker because the animals feel safe when they see a familiar member.
- Participate in the regular routines of animals. This will make them accept you as their friend, and this will make your interaction very strong.
