Hi

I created a species list for this facility:

Name: Taman Agrovet Perlis
Location: Perlis, Malaysia
Website: Taman Agrovet Perlis | Padang Besar
Visit Date: December 8, 2024
Ticket Price: RM 2
Animal Feeding / Activities: Animal Food / Farm Tour Rides (From RM2)

This facility was formerly known as "Perlis Ostrich Farm" until and was a facility that focues on ostriches. The park renewed recently as "Taman Agrovet Perlis", with less ostriched and more Javan Rusas.

It is a government facility, operated by Jabatan Perkhidmatan Veterinar Negeri Perlis (Perlis State Veterinary Services Department). The facility has large exhibits for most of the animals, but not well maintained. Some exhibits are small but not tiny,and decently sized. Large animals, such as horse, pony and Javan Rusa are free roaming in the place.

The highlight of the facility will be the large herd of Javan Rusas. There are around 300, and continuously breeding.

Here is the species list.I have also added the species list to Zootierliste, so I will follow its format for the list.

The species list is based on signs, questions to staff, and personal observations, and may not be correct. Also, I'm probably missing some turtle species, since teh turtles were not signed.

Please let me know if you see any points to fix or have any questions.
I'll be happy to discuss!
