Bioparc de la Gaspésie
A zoo in Bonaventure that displays native Gaspé animals such as moose, black bears and seals across five habitats of the Gaspé Peninsula.
The Bioparc de la Gaspésie is in Bonaventure, about 50 km east of Carleton. Its enclosures are arranged by the five ecosystems of the Gaspé Peninsula (bay, river, forest, tundra and mountains) and house about 40 native species, including moose, black bears, cougars, caribou, seals and otters. The trail is about 1 km long. Feeding talks are given in summer, making it very suitable for families. It closes in winter, and tickets must be bought separately.
