Utsunomiya Zoo, Zoo in Utsunomiya, Japan.
The zoo spans several acres featuring various animal habitats, including Amur tigers, white tigers, African lions, white lions, and Asiatic black bears.
The facility originated as Daito Land Utsunomiya Animal Park in April 1969, relocated to its current location in 1977, and became Utsunomiya Zoo in 1981.
The zoo follows the theme of connecting nature, animals, and children through interactive experiences, allowing visitors to feed giraffes and elephants.
Operating hours extend from 9:00 to 17:00 between March and December, while winter hours from mid-January to February run from 9:30 to 16:30.
The zoo creates paper products from processed elephant dung, selling them as protective charms to generate additional revenue for animal care.
