Despite the zoo's size, the collection here was full of rare species with a few familiar ones. The collection really reflect's the zoo's conservation efforts and research towards said species. I highly recommend visiting it, especially for those who don't live in North America or Europe and those who love history, as there's plenty to be seen here.
