点评:Pro: we enjoyed the experience of feeding the elephants and giraffes. Monkeys aren’t running wild (watch personal items, especially with food). Up close encounters.
Cons: the animals aren’t in good conditions. The penguins are in a small and old enclosure. It’s very dirty and you really can’t see them well.
There is an elephant that has tusks and seems to be chained. The others are clearly distressed, evident by their movements of their trunk. You will be told they are happy but it’s not.
Are we glad we went, yes. Would we recommend, yes but with warning. Coming from NC with the largest zoo and seeing the difference, it was emotional for me. But I respected that this is not the same situations.
If coming for Moo Deng, expect that to find her past the baby stage. She really didn’t move around much but it was part of what motivated us to come.
It’s an easy day trip out of the city.
翻译:优点:我们很享受喂大象和长颈鹿的体验。猴子们没有到处乱跑(注意保管好个人物品,尤其是食物)。可以近距离接触动物。
缺点:动物们的生活条件不太好。企鹅被关在一个又小又旧的围栏里,非常脏,而且很难看清它们。
有一头长着象牙的大象,看起来像是被铁链拴着的。其他的大象显然很痛苦,从它们不停地摆动鼻子就能看出来。工作人员会告诉你它们很开心,但事实并非如此。
我们很高兴来这里吗?是的。我们会推荐吗?会,但要提醒大家。我们之前住在北卡罗来纳州,那里有最大的动物园,看到这里的景象让我很感慨。但我尊重这里的情况,毕竟这里的情况不一样。
如果你是冲着Moo Deng来的,做好心理准备,她可能已经过了幼崽阶段。她几乎没怎么活动,但这正是我们来这里的原因之一。
这里是离市区很近的一日游目的地。
