The French Guiana Zoo, originally a hummingbird center called Fauna Flora Amazonica, opened in 1983. After closing in 2007, it was acquired and reopened in 2008 as Zoo de Guyane, located between Macouria and Montsinéry. Owned by Franck and Angélique Chaulet, the zoo became the second most visited attraction in French Guiana in 2013, after the Salvation Islands. The collection includes monkeys, sloths, anteaters, harpies, alligators and a variety of birds, highlighted by an aviary opened in 2014. The zoo offers an immersive treetop walk experience for children and is a member of the European Association of Zoos and Aquarius.
