Zoo Archives - Page 5 of 5

Zoobic Safari is the only Tiger Safari here in the Philippines. It was built on the site of the former US Naval Base in Subic ,Zambales. I don’t know the precise measurement of the theme park but it is huge! That is why there is a tram which takes you to and from the different attractions inside, you won’t be able to go around on foot.

At the entrance was a ZOOVENIR SHOP, where they sell different souvenirs like shirts and animal stuffed toys..

Admission is P450 for adult and P350 for children below four feet.

Yes, we were all wearing animal prints..LOLz..Just thought it might be fun to go with the “theme” for the day.

While waiting for our tour guide, we decided to have our picture taken with one of the park’s many tiger. I think 5 person with the Tiger costs P540 and you get 3 shots. You can then choose which your best shot and they will have it printed. They allowed more than five of us to come in. They said it’s because three are kids.

I wanted to take Ykaie to Manila Zoo because I had such a great time as a kid there and I wanted her to see more animals. Admission for adults cost P40 and for children below 4 ft it’s P20.

Manila Zoo

The Manila Zoo that we visited is not the Manila Zoo that I’ve known as a kid anymore.Cages are being renovated as well as other areas of the zoo but there are less animals.Most of the animals are poorly taken care of and there are no giraffe or even a lion in sight.

We saw tigers, monkey, snake, iguana, ostrich, philippine deer, zebra, horses, hippo, different kinds of birds and an elephant.

Manila Zoo

There is also a small zoo inside the Manila Zoo called Kinder Zoo where you can pet the animals and take your pictures with them. Admission here costs P65 per person. You can take your pictures with different kinds of birds, an ostrich, a snake, a wild boar, a small crocodile,a turtle and a baby monkey.

THE BIRDS

I think Ykaie is a little bit scared with the birds, maybe because she can feel the claws in her head…

ykaie doesn’t wanna carry the monkey but is afraid to let go of it either because it might fall and she knows that falling might hurt the baby monkey.
