African Safari

OITA ACTIVITY

Around 70 species and 1,400 animals and birds live active lives in this approximately 115 m2 expanse of nature.
This safari-style zoological garden is among the largest in Japan; here, you can gain an incredible, exciting view of the wildlife in the Safari Zone, where you can see large wild animals from your car or the Jungle Bus, a bus for ecological observation. In addition, the Kangaroo Petting Forest within the Petting Area, where you can pet kangaroos, is popular. You can also pet small animals such as miniature horses and guinea pigs.
