NegevZoo, Zoo in Beer Sheva, Israel.
The Negev Zoo extends across 12.5 acres at the western edge of Beer Sheva, featuring natural habitats for 150 different animal species.
Founded in 1954 as a small petting zoo near a school, the facility expanded through support from Beer Sheva city, the Ministry of Education, and private donors.
The zoological garden functions as an educational center for children in the Negev region, offering programs about wildlife conservation and environmental protection.
The facility maintains daily operations from 09:00 to 22:00 during summer months, with modified schedules for winter and weekends at Kiryat Meir Batz 5.
The zoo collection emphasizes regional fauna, maintaining specialized areas for ungulates, turtles, snakes, and lizards native to the Negev desert environment.
