A nature Park in the city

A beautiful place to see endangered species only seen in the Region of Negros and Panay island. It is up to each and everyone of us to protect their environment or one day they would be instinct.

Fantastic experience of native wildlife.

A wonderful snapshot of wildlife native to Negros. The animals are well cared for, the setting is lush and the keepers are dedicated. We were fascinated to see the unusual and endangered creatures and encouraged by the conservation work being undertaken. I would definitely recommend...More

Doing its part to preserve biodiversity and save the planet

Bacolod City does not have "a zoo", however, this is the closest thing. Despite the small enclosures, the animals are well-protected and well-fed. This is an opportunity for people, young and old, to witness in a controlled environment, and be educated about the biodiversity of...More

Beautiful place that does good work

A place to see endangered species of different kids, ranging from cats to owls. The mission of the place is to preserve these endangered species, which I find to be honorable.

Great hidden place

This is one of the best finds in Bacolod. I just wish they had more visitors and more funding. Many unique and near extinct animals and plants are here.

A must-see for environmentalists!

This Center has been around for some time, and the great work they have done in artificial breeding of four species, found only on the island and nowhere else in the world -- e.g. the Negros bleeding-heart pigeon, is definitely worth a visit!

Nice but needs help from the gov't

It was nice seeing endangered species and rare animals but it would be better if the government gives support to this sanctuary. The place needs more caretakers. the pathwalks were filled with moss anyone can slip. Mosquitoes were everywhere too.

For the record this is not a zoo

One of the most painful things to see are animals in cages. It borders on animal cruelty and that is also the reason why I am reluctant to visit any "animal showcase" kind of attraction. BUT! This time I make an exception because the goal...More
