Who We Are
At Flora and Fauna, our story begins with our passionate founder, Ela, (born and raised in Lima Peru) who has dedicated her life to working with animals. With years of experience and a deep love for wildlife, Ela witnessed firsthand the unfortunate realities of animals held in poor conditions at various facilities. This sparked a profound desire to create a sanctuary where these animals could thrive and receive the care they deserve. Inspired to make a difference, she established Flora and Fauna, a mobile petting zoo dedicated to educating the community about the proper care and conservation of animals. We strive to teach everyone the importance of wildlife conservation, fostering a love and respect for nature that will inspire future generations to protect our planet's diverse ecosystems. Our mission is not only to provide a safe haven for rescued wildlife but also to cultivate a deeper understanding and appreciation for these incredible creatures.
Our Mission
At Flora & Fauna, our mission is to cultivate a deep appreciation for wildlife and nature in people of all ages, especially children. We believe in the transformative power of hands-on experiences to inspire curiosity and foster a lifelong love for the natural world. By bringing our mobile petting zoo to communities, we create memorable, interactive encounters that encourage kids to explore, learn, and connect with nature, rather than getting lost in screens. We are committed to providing engaging educational encounters that highlight the importance of biodiversity, conservation, and environmental stewardship. Through our carefully curated experiences, we strive to ignite a sense of wonder and responsibility, empowering the next generation to become advocates for the animals and ecosystems that share our planet. At Flora & Fauna, we envision a future where every child embraces the beauty of wildlife, understanding its vital role in our world, and actively participates in its preservation. Together, let’s inspire a love for the outdoors that lasts a lifetime!
