Terrible place, animals are super thin and aren’t well fed. Live pigs were being fed to the crocodiles. All the animals are in tiny cages and aren’t in the right environment.
Ticket price for foreigners were 300 for adults and for Thais it’s 180. You could buy some animal food. A bike rental is 50 and the golf carts are 400 baht for an hour.
Most of the animals were standing on concrete and the ones that aren’t were standing on dirt.
They have a pit of crocodiles and live pigs running around for food around it, one bad step and they’re going to fall in.
The cows are in sunny concrete blocks and don’t get let out.
The birds are in extremely small cages and have no space to fly.
The white lions are tied down and are sitting on concrete blocks and you’ll get charged 200 baht per photo.
This place is horrible, cruel for the animals, and over priced. Don’t come here, go to wildlife and friends sanctuary where they actually care for these animals unlike the money hungry owners of this Zoo.
( while walking around i didn’t see any Zoo keepers at all, everything was a mess and the conditions are terrible)
Avoid this place unless you want to feel bad for the animals and...
Read moreAs of May, 2016, the zoo is under construction, but has many exhibits open. The star of the show is Meena the baby white lion. Meena is two-month old female who loves to play. It's an additional 100 baht to feed her a bottle of milk, but worth every satang. There a full grown tigers in very small cages, along with some bears. We saw and fed otters, alpaca, deer, squirrels, sheep, buffalo and birds. A small aviary was full of very colorful, tame birds that were fun to feed and play with. There is no dual pricing (hooray) and the entry is 390 baht for adults and 150 for kids. We got to take advantage of promotional pricing so got in for about half price. The zoo is west of town 10 km or so and sits on 40 rai of land. There are lots of big trees for shade, and bikes for rent to get around, but not really necessary. Bigger cages for the predators and some of the smaller animals would...
Read moreIt's more of a farm than a zoo, and I think the owner should make it completely a farm instead. Lots of free running chicken, ducks, and sheep. Furthermore there are rabbits, pigs, birds, fish, deer, and horses in randomly placed cages. Additional exotic animals are turtles, a white lion, and elephants. One can feed all of the animals buying a basket of food. The overall state is old except for the renovated entrance. In my opinion the animals suffer, lack food and a natural environment, and are not treated well. The elephants are showing all signs of boredom and should be released to a proper sanctuary immediately. The baby elephants feed are tight together with chains so it cannot run at all. If possible don't go there, better visit Swiss Sheep Farm, Malai Farm, any elephant sanctuary, or even...
