although the exterior of the zoo is not striking, located at an old farm in the countryside, its exhibits are more impressive. it provides a good opportunity to see the difference between crocodiles, alligators and all the other species. crocodiles are inactive most of the time but with so many variants, at least one of them is likely to be active during a visit. a portion of each sold admission ticket is contributed towards conservation projects conducted by the crocodile specialist group. all crocodiles in the zoo come from prior captivity. all the larger crocodiles are housed in well designed surroundings with plants and artificial cliffs which they share with turtles and lizards. the smaller species have spacious terrariums at their disposal, allowing them to be seen close up. crocodile zoo participates in several breeding programs, and coordinates the european programs for the black caiman and philippine crocodile.
