Hi
I visited this facility in May, and I'm writing a visit report with species list.
This is a relatively new zoo located outside Bangkok. It is a private roadside zoo, and like many of them in Thailand, it has chained tigers and lions. Too bad that this zoo is newly made but still in a very old-fashioned business.
Here is the species list.
I'm following the format on Zootierliste.
<Mammals>
Black and white ruffed lemur (Varecia variegata variegata)
Common mona monkey (Cercopithecus mona (Syn.: Cercopithecus mona mona))
Common squirrel monkey (South American squirrel monkey) (Saimiri sciureus)
Domestic donkey (Standard donkey) (Equus africanus f. asinus (Syn.: Equus asinus))
Domestic goat (Capra aegagrus f. hircus)
Domestic horse (No Breeds-status) (Equus ferus f. caballus (Syn.: Equus przewalskii f. caballus) (Syn.: Equus caballus))
Domestic sheep (Ovis orientalis f. aries (Syn.: Ovis aries aries))
Eastern putty-nosed monkey (Greater white-nosed monkey) (Cercopithecus nictitans nictitans)
Lar gibbon (Lar) (White-handed gibbon) (no subspecies-status) (Hylobates lar)
Lion (No subspecies-status) (Panthera leo)
Mantled Colobus (Mantled Guereza) (Magistrate black Colobus) (no subspecies-status) (Colobus guereza (Syn.: Colobus abyssinicus))
Pony (No Breeds-status) (Equus ferus f. caballus (Syn.: Equus przewalskii f. caballus))
Red ruffed lemur (Varecia rubra (Syn.: Varecia variegata rubra))
Reticulated giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis reticulata (Syn.: Giraffa reticulata))
Ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta)
Tanzanian Black-and-white colobus (Peters’s Angolan Colobus) (Colobus angolensis palliatus (Syn.: Colobus angolensis palliates) (Syn.: Colobus angolensis sharpei))
Tiger (no subspecies-status) (incl. White tiger, Golden tabby) (Panthera tigris)
White peafowl (Pavo cristatus mut. albi)
<Birds>
Black-casqued hornbill (Black-casqued wattled hornbill (Ceratogymna atrata)
Black-handed spider monkey (Golden spider monkey) (Geoffroy’s spider monkey) (no subspecies-status) (Ateles geoffroyi)
Blue-and-yellow macaw (Blue-and-gold macaw) (Ara ararauna)
Great hornbill (Great Indian hornbill) (Buceros bicornis)
Great white pelican (Eastern white pelican) (Rosy pelican) (Pelecanus onocrotalus (Syn.: Pelecanus roseus) (Syn.: Pelecanus mitratus))
Greater rhea (Common rhea) (No Subspecific status) (Rhea americana)
Indian peafowl (Blue peafowl) (Indien Peacock) (Pavo cristatus)
Rhinoceros hornbill (Great Rhinoceros hornbill) (no subspecific status) (Buceros rhinoceros)
Southern ground hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri (Syn.: Bucorvus cafer))
It seems that the zoo had these species until recently, but are now gone:
Eastern lesser white-nosed monkey (Eastern lesser spot-nosed monkey) (Cercopithecus petaurista petaurista)
Pygmy marmoset (no subspecies-status) (Cebuella pygmaea (Syn.: Callithrix pygmaea))
Here are some photos:
Toger exhibits are small and muddy
Lion cubs waiting for visitirs to pay extra fees to take photos
Rows of cages for hornbills and primates
Baby Lemurs and Mona Monkeys were in tiny cages
Single giraffe
More photos will be uploaded to the "Thailand-Other" album shortly!
Overall, I think this place is just another private zoo, and not worth the visit unless you want to see the rare primates and hornbills.
Feel free to leave any comments or questions!
