The last time I visited, their elephant is alone and she is already aging, Their zebras are not pure zebra's anymore, their zebras are half horse, so I can call them zorse. They have a Llama, They have sugar glider in the trees, There are still lions and tigers but they dont seemed to breed them. Most of the animals are already aging. I think they need to clean the zoo, have some new animals and cure the sick animals. Some animals dont really look healthy. The animals in malabon zoo have better condition.

I didn't know sugar gliders can be found at the zoo. Those little creatures were cute. It may be worth seeing malabon zoo but the location is a disappointment and farther than manila zoo. Considering that Manila zoo has been the oldest zoo in existence although not in Asia, it could be the reason that the old feeling is preserved there. Certainly a candidate zoo for nostalgics.

I think Manila zoo needs new animals, and they should breed the animals they already have, so we will have a new generation, most of the animals in Manila zoo re already senior citizens because they never tried to breed them to have a newer generation of animals. It seemed like they were trying to avoid breeding, they seprate the males and females from cages. They were bigger than Malabon zoo but malabon zoo have young animals because they breed.

well i don't know the exact address but it is near malate. Less than an hour drive from espana manila. Well I haven't been there but they say that they have some exotic animals there like elephants and alligators but i don't know much. take two? meaning visit it again? Well from what i have heard they have rehabilitated it a little so its much more pleasant now. It has some food stalls and something more like a park now than a "only zoo" place.

Well, will see if I can visit the zoo someday. More people would be visiting there and it surely will exhaust the energy and food stalls can provide for the food.

The only zoo i have really explored is the one in tagaytay so i don't have any opinions on manila zoo but i liked what they did with tagaytay zoo because its not only a "Zoo only" place.
