I saw a boy, about the age of a nursery school student, asking the zoo staff, ``Can I touch the ducks?''However, the breeding staff simply replied, ``It's okay, but I'll bite you. If you don't mind being bitten, go ahead.''I was wondering if there was a way to respond more politely to small children visiting.Although the entrance fee is quite high and it must be difficult in many ways, it is a place where I feel like something could be done to make it a little more sanitary for both the visitors and the animals.

I think it's a very fulfilling place for this price.What I am concerned about is the environment inside the cage.duck? duck? was covered in excrement and urine, and a duck was walking on it.Also, I'm really curious about cats.Are you taking it out of the game?The cat itself smells like urine, and some of the cats are hoarse from howling so much...As a cat owner, I was very worried. Cats are naturally very clean, so they don't smell like that...I hope it's an unfounded fear, but as others have written, I'd like them to grow in a larger room. I feel sorry for her compared to the cat who grew up in such a beautiful environment like a cat cafe...

It was a rare place to be able to interact with chicks, so it was great.However, there were quite a few small cockroaches wandering around and it smelled...I wanted a minimum level of cleanliness.This is 800 yen...I feel like that.

This seasonal pattern of intense heat is hot (lol)The group left just as we arrived, so it was reserved for everyone (lol)Children can play in the stream here, and it's convenient because it's close to my house.However, if you go in the summer, you will be in trouble if you do not take measures against insects.

I went there for the first time. I quite enjoyed it, but there are a few things that bother me. The spider monkey looked kind of lonely. That gauge would be too narrow for monkeys, so I thought it would be better to return it to nature if possible. Also, wouldn't it be better to give the cat a room where he can play freely instead of using a cage? I thought. I didn't notice any smells, so I thought they were properly managed.

A small zoo with a high degree of freedom. Dogs are also allowed. There is also a slope, so strollers are OK. There is a diaper changing area in the restroom. There is interaction with various small animals that children will enjoy. It's a good size and adults don't have to walk around, so it's great. You can also play in the water, so it's recommended for going out even in the hot weather. Also, you should definitely go for a hammock in the forest. A hidden gem for detox.

You could call it a small zoo. Turtle🐢, flamingo🦩There are horned owls, owls, and goats, and you can feed them vegetable sticks, but there is a fee.I think it would be great for families with small children ☺️There is also a small river where you can play in the water and have a barbecue 👍️

It's a compact zoo, but before you know it you'll be there for 3 hours. This is definitely the place for people who can't feed their animals slowly at a large zoo. You can give the animal away slowly enough to have it all to yourself.

The other day, I went to Picnica Republic.Free parking is available in front of the entrance.Guests in wheelchairs or with disabilities can park next to the main building.In the winter, the park is only open on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, so check the website for details before you go.It is a wonderful place where you can interact with many creatures.What kind of creatures are there?Guinea pigs, chicks, goats, crows, degus, wild boars, donkeys, owls, horned owls, ring-tailed lemurs, spider monkeys, rabbits, alligator turtles, tortoises, humans, poodles, squirrels, snakes, ducks, swans, ducks, flamingos, lizards, deer, etc.Recommended for cat lovers too!Friendly and cute cats say, ``Catch me!'' Touch it! ” he appeals.If you love living things, you can stay here for hours.When the weather gets warmer, you can pitch a tent and play for a day, there is a hammock in the forest, and in the summer you can even play in the water.You can also have a barbecue.*Please also see the details on the homepage.If you love living things,Not only children but also adults are welcome to come and have fun!Your heart will be healed (*^^*)

A compact zoo where you can slowly interact with animals? is.I had something to do nearby and took my 3 year old daughter there.Parking is available for 500 yen if you park on the slope right next to the entrance, but it is convenient for families with small children. The parking lot at the bottom of the hill, a few minutes walk away, is free.In the nursery building at the entrance, you can interact with and feed chicks, rabbits, and guinea pigs, and you can see degus, cats, turtles, snakes, and more. Even though it was a weekend, we were able to enjoy the experience of interacting with goats and riding a pony (for children aged 3 to 40 kg) without being crowded.It is recommended that you bring your own food as it is difficult to obtain food within the park other than during the bread making experience. There were enough tables and chairs for free use.I was concerned about the staff as there were some comments about them being unfriendly. Is this the one? There were some people who seemed a little sullen, but they explained things to be careful of and answered all my questions, so I didn't have a bad impression.Due to time constraints, I was unable to participate in the bread making experience and duck race, but I would like to try again next time.I feel like I've found a great hidden gem, so I'll definitely come back to see if it continues to exist!

My daughter seemed to be having fun and was able to interact with small animals, but the female employee who helped us with the horseback riding experience was very unfriendly and seemed like a pain in the ass because it was a weekday and it was a hassle to prepare, and it suddenly became a bad memory.

Adults 800 yen. Children 500 yen. You can enjoy interacting with animals for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Parking is free, but you have to climb a little hill (about 1-2 minutes). If you don't want to climb, you can park in the upper parking lot for 500 yen. Feeding was approximately 200 yen.

There were chicks, guinea pigs, goats, ponies, and dogs (only one) that you could interact with.Two cats were able to be touched through the cage, and the fourth cat was sleeping with a cat who did not want to be touched.During the duck race, there was interference from waterfowl other than the competitors, and there were some unexpected twists and turns, so it was a lot of fun.Tegu (large rats) were on sale.At the outdoor interaction corner (pony, goat), the animals go into sales mode from the moment you purchase animal treats.Can be enjoyed up to the lower grades of elementary school.

I went nearby and had some time left so I looked it up on Google Maps and found this place so I stopped by.Although the zoo is small, you can relax and be surrounded by nature.

As a family with a dog, most of all``You can enter the park with your pet.''This has the most points♪ There is no admission fee for pets.There are many zoos, but generally speaking, pets are not allowed.That's why I personally think that zoos like this one, where you can bring your dog along, are quite valuable.Showing a variety of animals can help socialize puppies to some extent.As a zoo, well... it's a private zoo, so it's small in scale, but...In fact, I felt that it was just the right size for me to bring my dog around with me.There seems to be a slight increase in the number of people on holidays, but it still doesn't feel crowded.For children up to the age where they can experience pony riding (3rd grade of elementary school?)My first impression was that it seemed like a facility that people would be particularly happy with.
