Hi
I created a species list for this facility:
Name: The Bentong Farm
Location: Bentong, Pahang, Malaysia
Website: The Bentong Farm
Visit Date: November 24, 2024
Ticket Price: RM 68 (Non-Malaysian Adult) / RM 48 (Malaysian Adult)
Animal Food: Available in different size / price
This place sounds like a typical "petting farm", but has a fairly nice environment and interesting species.
The facility is owned and managed by the same company as these places:
- Farm In The City (Selangor)
- KL Tower Mini Zoo (Kuala Lumpur / Closed in 2024)
Animal exhibits in overall are small but decent and clean, and is far better than other "petting farms" in Malaysia.
Malaysian facilities tend to be understaffed overall, but this place had enough staff to maintain the place and warn visitors in case of bad attitude to animals.
I have also added the species list to Zootierliste, so I will follow its format for the list.
I have arranged the list based on areas of the zoo.
