We started our view from there,our first sight was the orphanage where it was explain to use why it was an orphanage it had much of domesticated animals anyways as it was explain that part are for animals that where rescued from the wild or from hunters, I also got to find out that such in case you own a part and need to travel you could actually bring them to the zoo and they would be kept for fee that is and you will pick it up when u return
