Cordillera - Animal lovers will no longer travel far outside Baguio
or Cordillera just to see their favorite animals as the city government is
studying the plan of putting up a zoo in the city.
Avilon Wildlife Conservation foundation had recently submitted a proposal
to put up a 7.5 hectare zoo inside a 3.8 hectare portion of the Botanical
Garden according to the Baguio Public Information website.
In order to cover the proposed 7.5 hectare, Avilon said it will build an
elevated walkways around the zoo for the viewing public to be able to see
all the animals.
Avilon Zoo is currently the largest zoological institution in the
Philippines and responsible for building the 19 acre zoo facility in
Rodriguez, Rizal.
The Avilon Zoo in Rizal houses more than 3,000 specimens of exotic wildlife
representing more than 600 species of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians,
freshwater fishes and invertebrates.
The foundation wanted to establish similar zoological sanctuary in the
North.
It said that the city government is going to earn income through the lease,
amusement and other taxes when the zoo will be operational.

why not conservatory for wild animals in the cordilleras? why would we adopt foreign animals which are high maintenance?,,, just thinking
This is the worst idea ever. Who thought this up? Other countries are already closing their zoos, tas we're going to put one up here? How benighted!!!!
True animal lovers would not want this idea. Ay asis kababain if ever this will push through
No please! Big big NO! These beautiful animals belong in the wild, not enclosed for life in cages to be gawked at and made money from. Where is humanity? Shame!
I agree with you. I'm not into zoo thing as well.
No! These animals need to be in their natural habitats not in zoo. Baguio is too crowded and dirty already, especially when tourists are here
Santo Tomas is good, good for picnic areas too, more waste, more pollution, more money, more people, economic stability, economic sabotage, commendation on Leadership, comment on leadership, people people people, no safe place for the wilds, and no wilds for the safe people. If you do good, you are wrong, if you do wrong, you do good. Ikabil yo man dayta nga zoo or haan, parehas lang, parehas lang sayang ti tiempo. - Uncle Lampitok
