Om
Raske fakta: You'll find over 400 animals representing more than 100 species wandering in habitats designed to mimic their natural environments. The zoo also plays a vital role in conservation efforts for endangered species, which adds to the meaningful experience here.
Høydepunkter: A standout feature is the Tropical Rainforest building where colorful birds fly freely in a lush, humid environment that feels like stepping into the wild. Rare species like the white-handed gibbon perform acrobatics in spacious enclosures, delighting visitors with their agility.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable walking shoes as the zoo covers about 15 acres with varied terrain.
- Bring a camera with a zoom lens for capturing shots of animals without disturbing them.
- Skip the midday heat by visiting early or late; animals tend to be more active during cooler hours.
- Visit the Tropical Rainforest first to see the birds and primates active before they retreat to shade.
