Dvůr Králové Zoo, Safari zoo in Dvůr Králové nad Labem, Czech Republic.
Dvůr Králové Zoo is an animal park in Dvůr Králové nad Labem, Czech Republic, specializing in African wildlife. The grounds include open enclosures that visitors can drive or ride through by bus, as well as walking sections with viewing points for zebras, antelopes and other savanna inhabitants.
The park opened in May 1946 as a small regional zoo and expanded gradually over the following decades. During the 1970s, the facility began to focus on African species, growing into a center for breeding programs of threatened animals.
The park runs breeding programs that focus especially on rhinos and giraffes, working with conservation organizations in Africa. Visitors often see keepers working with the animals, offering a window into the daily routine of a modern zoo.
The zoo sits about two hours north of Prague and is easiest to reach by car or regional bus. A visit usually takes several hours, especially if you join the safari tour, which you can sign up for at the entrance.
The park has transported rhinos by plane directly to Africa on several occasions to strengthen wild populations. These translocations are among the most complex animal transports in the world and are supported by international conservation bodies.
