Here's a zoo where you can see all three species of anthropoid apes, smaller monkeys, bongos, elephants, sea lions, penguins, animals of prey, cows and many species of birds all happliy situated on 18 hectares of land. The zoo houses more than 3,000 animals in total, with special emphasis placed by zoo attendents on 'space', 'behavior' and 'natural environment'. Besides the zoo, you can also visit the spectacular 'Safari Park', which replicates a savannah landscape and is filled with giraffes, zebras, many antelopes, rhinoceroses and a number of African bird species to be admired, the 'Bush jungle' inhabited by tropical animals and plants, the 'Desert', which is a true-to-life version of the North-American, subtropical Sonora Desert, teeming with poisonous snakes and scorpions (kept within bounds), and larger animals, such as peccaries, bighorns and red lynxes, and the 'Ocean', which provides a wonderful exploration of the under-water ecosystem. There are also some restaurants and a playground for children. Only cash is accepted within the zoo premises.
