Banham Zoo uses donated fragrances in their big cat enrichment programs to encourage tigers, leopards and more to express their natural behaviors
Have a medicine cabinet full of unused fragrances? Get a scent that didn’t suit you as a holiday gift?The zoo posted a call“For several years now, zoo keepers all over the world have been aware that scent can play an important part in their enrichment programs, providing animals with opportunities to express natural behaviors and many species, especially big cats, respond very positively to unique scents when sprayed in their enclosures,” the zoo offered as explanation for their request.
According to the zoo, their keepers’ trove of donated scents is starting to run low, so they would appreciate any fragrance donations from guests visiting the zoo. “Our big cats definitely react positively when scents are used as part of their enrichment program. For some reason Calvin Klein perfume is a huge hit with all big cats but in all honesty any perfumes work well and we do like to offer them a variety of different smells,” the zoo’s animal manager, Mike Woolham, said in a statement.
