Zoo León

Zoo León is a wildlife park in León de Los Aldama featuring separate areas such as Safari Zoona and Buffalo's Cabin, along with a train ride that travels through different animal habitats. The facility displays a range of species in themed zones designed for visitor observation.

The zoo began operations in 1979 with a collection that included regional bird species, white-tailed deer, domestic ducks, and horses. The facility has expanded significantly since its opening to encompass many additional animal species.

The zoo includes the Zoona Mito section, where visitors learn about different species and their connections to regional traditions and beliefs.

The best time to visit is early morning when animals are more active and crowds are lighter. Comfortable shoes and water are important since the grounds require walking and sun exposure can be considerable.

The grounds house a Royal Eagle in its own large enclosure, a feature many visitors overlook. The location also offers elevated platforms where guests can watch giraffes up close and interact with them directly.
