Since we were there, went to the petting zoo and yet another disappointment.
Nothing much to visit inside the petting zoo. Small area and some of the animal are not well fed and some of the water container for animal were empty. Very hot inside despite visit there at 11am. Need improvement on the ventilation and environment.
Ticket: RM8 for adult and kid. FREE for adult over 60 years old.

For the price of the ticket at RM 20/adult ( for the night zoo), it was a worthwhile trip. The weather was cool and comfortable for a night stroll. The animals like the lions, tigers, hyenas and panthers were awake and walking about. The buggy ride was included in the ticket price and the driver we got was informative and very entertaining! We even got up close with the white swans and the grey crowned crane. Overall a great trip! The only downside was the maintenance of the toilets within the zoo.. do use the toilet at the entrance. Bought the tickets online, easy and convenient.
Its great for a local council to have a zoo and plenty of families brought their children. My first time visiting. Pricing for locals is affordable.
Its nice to have the speed run of the zoo with the “train/tram” ride. Gives a short bearing as I was not provided a map.
Sadly many of the exhibits are quite run down or not bigger in size. Many of the grazers have bare enclosures, the water murky, the otter enclosure without fresh water. The chimp enclosure lacks shading. You can see most of the animals are hiding from the sun with whatever shade they had. Some enclosures had 1 poor animal in it.
Many others either empty and overgrown or “something exciting coming soon”
Floater plants overgrown in the water/ponds. Was supposed to look at fishes under the cover of floaters. What logic.
All in all, I’m surprised they still had a selection of animals to view, although skinny and not in great conditions. Put me in the dilemma of do we cage animals for eduction or do we let them live freely?
Very good Zoo. Especially kids enjoy their lot. You can visit Zoo by food or by tram, tram is free included in tickets. By foot you can explore more. Adult( above 12 year) tickets are RM 16, kids and senior citizen tickets are RM 8.
Very nice zoo. Kids love the tram and close distance with wild animals. During my visit, the toilet is under renovation, so suggest to go toilet at the entrance before start your journey.
Places are Big and Animals have more Space to move around. Animals more relaxing due to nice weather.
But some Maintenance Needed a lot of things runs down. Need to Clean up some mess like Pond Water, Public Area & Cages/ Animal Shelther.
Overall me and and my wife enjoying here. We go both Day and Night and its very cheap. Good Experience too.
