Singapore Zoo – A Place To Will Enthrall You!

You might have been to several zoos and wildlife conservation parks in your city but the zoo in Singapore is indeed an out of the world experience. The Singapore Zoo has more animals and wildlife than any other Zoo and is extremely well maintained. Inaugurated in the year 1973 on 23rd June with an investment of 9 million Singapore dollars the Zoo is said to have the best facilities and hygiene. It is also called the Mandai Zoo and is another must watch attraction with the Singapore bird sanctuary.

The zoo is under the supervision of Singapore Wildlife Reserves which runs both the Singapore Bird Sanctuary and the Night Safari. The concept of the zoo is very much like an open zoo as opposed to the zoos that are normally found in your city. Here the visitors can see the animals in open enclosures and feel them nearby. With over 28 hectors of land under its occupancy the zoo is flocked every year by approximately 1.4 million visitors. The place has over 315 different animal species and an extensive range of wildlife.

For children, this place should not be missed by any chance because not only will your kids have a wonderfully fun filled day but they will also learn a great deal in the process. The one good way to enjoy this place is to reach in morning and spend the entire day there with the kids. The children will not only get entertained but also find new things about the nature and study the animals in peace. Even you would have the time of your life in this greater than life experience. A real animal lover would find his paradise in this place.

The animals there are kept in a way that they would be kept had they been in open. They are allowed to hunt for their pray and roam around freely. Hence we tourists find the animals as primitive as they could get. Although the tourists have nothing to worry about their safety since they are separated from the animals with natural barriers or wet moats. The zoo serves both purposes splendidly; one to show the natural wildlife in the most primitive of forms and second to ensure the safety of the people who visit the zoo.

Animals, here are not kept in a cage to prevent their normal movement but in huge enclosures and agile animals are given special treatment. The animals that are kept here are also the most threatened of species. Statistics claim the Singapore zoo has about 16% of its animals that are threatened. Hence the place not only acts as a modern concept of a zoo but also as a way to prevent these animals from being erased from the face of earth. To support the zoo they also have animal shows and a program which enables free entry to the zoo for a period of a year on payment of a specific amount. Within the zoo there are trams, animals, boats and ponies. There are umpteen fun and learning activities which will keep you busy throughout the day. You will never like to leave the place so easily. Such would be the fascination with amazing flora and fauna of the zoo.
