Surabaya Zoo, Zoo in Surabaya, Indonesia
This facility houses more than 230 species across grounds that include enclosures for orangutans, macaques, and proboscis monkeys. Visitors move along shaded pathways between different sections, each designed around specific regional habitats.
A journalist founded the grounds in 1916 and moved it twice before reaching its current location in 1920. These relocations reflected urban development during the late colonial period.
The name reflects the Dutch colonial era and the early location choices made by its founder. Families from across the city visit to introduce children to native Indonesian wildlife.
The main entrance provides access to several areas, including an island reachable by small boats. Mornings bring fewer crowds, and animals tend to be more active then than in the afternoon.
The enclosure areas for anoa buffalo show how the density of these animals changes with elevation. These rare ungulates are often difficult to see in the wild.
