Hi
I created a species list for this facility:
Name: Desaru Mini Zoo
Location: Johor, Malaysia
Website: Desaru Mini Zoo 迪沙鲁迷你动物园 | Pengerang
This facility is a common petting zoo in Malaysia, but holds some interesting mammals that are not commonly seen in other Malaysian zoos.
The list is based on the signs and personal observations, and may be wrong or missing some species.
The staff told me that the zoo is operated by an animal trading company, which explains the reason of its unique collection, and the fact that most of the animal enclosures have price tags.
