Although the appearance was a bit dated, the ticket price was only 500yen for an adult, and you could see a wide variety of animal species even polar bear, lions, hippos, rhinos and tigers. Definitely worth visiting, especially with kids.

Animals are kept in tiny cages or tight spaces resembling prisons only for human entertainment. Facilities are also old and worn out. Stresses are introduced to animals and it isn't humane. This zoo is 35 years old and is still built with the design since then. It is heartbreaking to see animals being treated poorly. The zoo should either learn from other zoos and make itself better or shut down and send the animals to better places to end their suffering.

Don’t go and support places that keep animals in extremely poor condition for entertainment. Why do they have a polar bear in a prefecture thats not even cold with rocks just painted white. The polar beat looks so tin, I wonder how they treat these animals.

This zoo is pretty cool with a wide selection of exotic animals. It's definitely way bigger than my local zoo in the states. It has lots of information about the animals such as their name, origin, traits and age. It has cute gift shops with lots of souvenirs and decorations. Peace, the polar bear, is definitely the star of the show and the selling point of the zoo. The entry fee was very cheap: ¥500

It’s a lovely zoo. You can see animals very close. Some places you can feed the animals.
