UNILORIN Zoo, Zoo at University of Ilorin, Nigeria
The Unilorin Zoo maintains animal enclosures for lions, pythons, camels, ostriches, crocodiles, eagles, monkeys, and baboons within a forested environment.
The facility started as a biological garden at the University of Ilorin mini-campus in 1975 and transformed into a zoological garden in 1985.
The zoological garden functions as an educational resource for the University of Ilorin Biological Sciences Departments, supporting both teaching and research activities.
Entry fees cost 500 naira per person with group discounts, while the additional canopy walkway experience requires a supplementary payment of 200 naira.
A suspended canopy walkway stretches 150 meters in length and reaches 45 meters in height, offering views across the zoo grounds.
