Exotic Animal World (previously Butterfly World), located on Route 44 in Klapmuts, Cape Winelands, is a unique destination that offers an immersive experience for animal lovers and families alike. This fascinating animal park, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Cape Winelands between Stellenbosch and Paarl, provides visitors with the chance to encounter a diverse array of exotic and domestic animals in a safe and educational environment.
Upon arrival, guests are greeted by a range of animals from around the globe. The park showcases a variety of exotic species, including lemurs, capuchin monkeys, and colorful birds, as well as more familiar animals like goats, sheep, and ponies. The emphasis is on interactive experiences, allowing visitors to feed and pet some of the animals under the guidance of knowledgeable staff.
One of the highlights of Exotic Animal World is its commitment to conservation and education. The park offers educational programs that focus on the importance of wildlife conservation, responsible pet ownership, and the natural behaviors of different species. This hands-on approach helps foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for animals, especially among younger visitors.
The park also features well-maintained picnic areas, making it a great spot for families to spend a leisurely day. The tranquil setting, combined with the opportunity to engage with animals, creates a memorable outing for all ages. Whether you’re looking to introduce children to wildlife, enjoy a relaxing day in nature, or simply have fun interacting with a range of animals, Exotic Animal World provides a delightful and enriching experience in the heart of the Cape Winelands.
We have an amazing onsite restaurant; Café Lemur!
Relax at leisure at one of the tables. You do not have to enter the facility to enjoy the great food!
Please Note: we no longer have butterflies on-site.
Due to adjustments in international trade during the coronavirus pandemic, we have ceased importing butterfly pupae from overseas.
Local butterflies are not suitable for tropical garden displays. As a result, we are no longer a butterfly park and have shifted our focus to caring for rescued and surrendered exotic pets.
Our tropical gardens now feature a variety of exotic rescue birds, and during your visit, you can also see hundreds of other animals that have found a new lease on life here at the sanctuary.
