Plans are already in motion to expand the species of animals, with aspirations to accommodate over 1,000 animals in the near future.

Safari World’s appeal extends beyond its vast collection of animals. It serves as a hub for entertainment, education, and fostering environmental awareness. With interactive experiences and a diverse array of species, the zoo aims to instil a lifelong commitment to conservation among its visitors. 

In addition to its animal exhibits, Safari World boasts additional attractions, including a thrilling water theme park and an entertainment area for families. Plus, the zoo plans to roll out special programs for school visits, providing enriching educational experiences for children.
