Conservation, education and protection are the watchwords of Lagos Zoo, where there are more than 120 species of animals and 200 plant species originating from all of the five continents, in a space where people can commune with nature.
Visitors can enjoy a 60-metre-long Flight Tunnel, which allows them to observe the marvellous colours of the birds in full flight, an idyllic scene on Monkey Island, and a small farm where children have the chance to come into close contact with domestic animals, including the dwarf zebus.
One of the zoo’s great concerns is to emphasise the space’s educational aspects, presenting a multifaceted pedagogical structure.
