Tourist attraction Zoo

👍 It was really a very pleasant experience, there is a false idea that it is closed but it is an interesting walk. Investment is needed for the maintenance of the areas, cages, and animals... it is an effort by several people which should encourage government entities to be more protagonists. I recomm... People often mention animals, para, animales, lugar,

    The Paraguaná Zoo, formerly known as Gustavo Rivera Zoological Park, is a zoological garden located in Punto Fijo, a city located on the Paraguaná peninsula, in the Falcón state, in Venezuela. This zoo, founded on June 5, 1985, covers an area of ​​approximately 4.2 hectares or 42,000 square meters. The zoo is home to a diversity of animals of different native species. However, it is currently facing a challenge of lack of maintenance, which has impacted its current state. Despite these difficulties, the zoo hopes to soon be back in optimal conditions for the enjoyment of all its visitors.

    It was really a very pleasant experience, there is a false idea that it is closed but it is an interesting walk. Investment is needed for the maintenance of the areas, cages, and animals... it is an effort by several people which should encourage government entities to be more protagonists. I recommend it to have a different time. $1 entry and the guides are a group of very friendly volunteers.

    Excellent special and recreational place for children, I would only recommend that little by little more plants be planted that give the park more attractiveness and at the same time maintain the dry leaves.

    It is not a very popular place for tourists, but the zoo is very well maintained, admission costs 2 dollars and you have contact animals. The guides are very friendly, among the animals you can see pumas, bears and monkeys

    El Zoo está en unas condiciones aceptables a pesar de la falta de recursos, tienen un personal comprometido y con un genuino amor por los animales. Estos se ven bien alimentados y hay una variedad interesante de especies. Felicito al equipo encargado

    Antes era un parque grande, con distintas áreas. Sin embargo el equipo del Zoo le está echando ganas nuevamente para recuperar los espacios y ofrecer mejores servicios. Tiene un bohío para eventos, parque infantil, granja de contacto, laguna artificial para alimentar a peces y tortugas, realizan exposiciones de arte y actividades musicales algunos fines de semana🙌🏼✨

    Too many resources are missing for it to be maintained

  • 3/5 Omar S. 4 years ago on Google • 16 reviews
    Ok, it's not the Zoo's fault, I feel like it's something of ours that has been gradually abandoned, however, the people in charge of the place have not given up, and it is still an option at a very low price to go on a Saturday or Sunday and enjoy with family and children, especially, you can feed the animals.

    (Translated by Google) The idea of ​​having a family trip that transports you to another place is a good idea, a place where you see with your own eyes animals that you could never see in everyday life, however, I think that you can cope with the situation in a better way, not only in the maintenance aspect (that is clear that it must be dealt with), but rather in how the species of the place are preserved... having a bird locked up all its life in a cage for entertainment or "education "Of the people is not something fair, I propose a total renovation of the place, a renovation that gives the species the space they need, so that the zoo would also have the popularity and visits it needs, and would be better in most aspects, both for animals and for visitors. (Original) Es buena la idea de tener un viaje familiar que te transporte a otro lugar, lugar en el que ves con tus propios ojos animales que jamás podrías ver en la vida cotidiana, sin embargo, pienso que se puede sobrellevar la situación de una mejor manera, no solo en el aspecto del mantenimiento (eso está claro que hay que tratarlo), sino más bien en cómo se preservan a las especies del lugar... tener a un ave encerrada toda su vida en una jaula para el entretenimiento o la "educación" de las personas no es algo justo, propongo una renovación total del lugar, una renovación que les dé a las especies el espacio que necesitan, así además el zoológico tendría la popularidad y visitas que necesita, y sería mejor en la mayoría de aspectos, tanto para los animales, como para los visitantes.

    Muy excelente en verdad, están mejorando sus áreas y tienen actividades muy recreativas para ayudar con el cuidado de los animales y su ecosistema.

  • 3/5 Lilia A. 1 year ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This site is something simple and pleasant for the little ones in the house. Although they are working on improving the zoo, it still needs more investment, more animals, improvement in the park, and in the green areas. It's not a big deal, bring plenty of water. (Original) Éste sitio es algo sencillo y agradable para los pequeños de la casa. Aunque están trabajando en la mejoría del zoológico, sigue necesitando más inversión, más animales, mejoría en el parque, y en las áreas verdes. No es la gran cosa, lleven bastante agua.

    (Translated by Google) What a beautiful place it would be, if there were the interest of our leaders plus the mystique of the employees, let's make a zoo that is an example for the Falconians and the whole of Venezuela. (Original) Que hermoso lugar sería, si existiera el interés de nuestros gobernantes más la mística de los empleados, hagamos un zoológico que sea ejemplo para los falconianos y Venezuela entera.

    I am very happy to see that they reactivated the Paraguaná zoo. It needs the support of the entire Paraguaná society so that the zoo can return to what it was before.
