About us

A life dedicated to animals, transformed into meaningful projects

Our purpose goes beyond designing attractions.

We believe every wildlife project should balance animal welfare, operational reality, education and visitor experience. That belief shapes how we plan, advise, collaborate and make decisions.

Our story

It started with hands-on animal care

Mauricio, founder of OceanikZOOgroup, began his professional journey working with dolphins, sea lions and penguins. Over time, practical experience and international relationships led to a broader role in zoo, aquarium and wildlife project consulting.
