Pellet-Maze

An interactive puzzle feeder for great apes.

This enrichment promotes both motor and cognitive skills.
The feed pellets must be conveyed from the great ape to the first feed wheel. Then the animal have to align the other two feed wheels by turning them in order to transport the pellets from the top to the bottom. There they can get to the food by hand or with a poking stick. The mechanics and the inner workings are protected by an all-enclosing, water-repellent stainless steel housing including an impact-resistant Makrolon® window.
