Project Survival "Cat Haven"

Zoo

👍👍 We went for the full day VIP package as a gift to my financeé. She called it one of the best gifts ever. If you can afford that package, I would highly recommend it.

👍👍 Amazing place! So many gibbon apes and so cool to see them up close. We’ve been going for 10 years. If going on a tour go before 10am to hear the gibbons sing for breakfast.

Elephants of Asia

Zoo

😠 DO NOT SUPPORT THIS ZOO. They’ve been known for neglecting their animals since the 60’s and even disregarded the health of their elephant Gita until she died without receiving help even though a “caretaker” noticed her distress far in advance. The male elephant Billy has been there since 1989 and sh...
