Crocolandia Foundation

Crocolandia Foundation is a wildlife center in Talisay that houses crocodiles, Philippine hawk-eagles, various reptiles, and native animals in large, open exhibits. The grounds contain multiple separate areas where different species live in settings that mimic their natural habitats.

The center began in 2001 as a small turtle facility and gradually grew into a larger operation when crocodiles were brought to the site. This expansion allowed it to become a comprehensive wildlife conservation space serving a broader conservation purpose.

The name comes from the center's emphasis on crocodiles, and visitors learn about these animals through regular demonstrations and keeper presentations. The space serves as a place where local families develop a connection to Philippine wildlife they might not otherwise encounter.

Wear comfortable shoes and bring sun protection since you will walk through outdoor exhibits. The best time to visit is in the morning when animals are more active and the heat is less intense.

The facility actively breeds endangered species like the Philippine crocodile, and this breeding program has helped restore populations of animals on the verge of disappearing. Visitors can witness how these animals are carefully raised to later release into the wild.
