Helping animals through enrichment. We design, build, and deliver enrichment devices to zoos and aquariums that have animals in human care, utilizing technology and advanced engineering. Animal Enrichment Systems (AES) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit . We are 100% volunteer-operated, so all donations go directly to providing enrichment to the animals that need it.
Birds/Aviary Enrichment
This environmental enrichment device (EED) will consist of a metal cart that can be moved about ZooTampa to showcase their animal ambassador birds.
There will be perches for the birds made from pvc and then covered with a type of epoxy used in animal habitats. The birds will be able to activate recessed buttons to choose a water spray, sound/music, breeze from a small fan or a food dispenser. Don had to learn how to weld to build the cart.
Here is a short video showing how “Ella Phun: works. We were testing the water and apple features in our driveway before delivery to ZooTampa in Spring 2019. A very special thank you to Peter for editing the video and to Kristin for naming the EED.
We are happy to let everyone know that the Donate/Pay Pal Button works again

We were granted our 501(c)(3) non-profit status! Animal Enrichment Systems (AES) is 100% volunteer-operated, so all donations go directly to providing enrichment to the animals that need it.
Our most recent environmental enrichment device (EED) is an upgrade to the seed/nut dispensers for the Florida black bears and primates at ZooTampa. We also built batteries/chargers that can be used with all the devices currently in use. We met zoo staff in the parking lot to be safe due to Covid.
