Ever dreamed of having dozens of pets but know that you don’t realistically have the space or resources to care for them? This opportunity might be for you; a zoo in Brabant is currently looking for a new owner!

Looking for a career change? Why not buy a zoo!

On the hunt for your next big business venture and like the idea of running your own company? Well, if you happen to have 5 million euros lying around, you could invest it in an animal park that comes fully equipped with 150 different species and 2.000 inhabitants - most of which are parrots, parakeets, cranes, birds of prey and owls.

Located not too far from the city of Eindhoven, Zoo Veldhoven has suffered major financial losses as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, and the current owners are looking to slow down a little - but they’re in no real rush to sell. “If a good candidate came forward, that wouldn’t be bad. But that may well take another 10 to 15 years,” explained owner Richard Loomans.

Take a look at what's on offer in the video below.
