Since one year, the animal park owner and manager Gregor Wilhelm is the proud owner of a telehandler T4512. “I only associate positive impressions with our Weidemann. We can do things we could not do before”, he explains with satisfaction. In doing this, the T4512 takes over tasks such as lifting decorative elements in the animal enclosures, mucking out stables or even tree care operations. The telehandler is used for approx. 250 hours per year and ensures well-being of animals in the animal park.
