Yes it is a disgusting place and should be closed down.........how anyone can condone keeping animals in a sh1thole like that is beyond me.
July 16, 20197 yr Author Lived in Phuket for 11 yrs, never been to the Zoo only heard stories how bad it was, at some point if you want to put forward an opinion you need to have experience of the something you are commenting about, hope that clarifies your comment.

July 16, 20197 yr Author I would rather see for myself which I did, it was worth 100bht just to see the Alligator Gar's.

July 16, 20197 yr Popular Post always use tripadvisor before visiting a place in Thailand. People are very active on it here and it's rarely wrong.

July 17, 20197 yr Author Everyone is different, how can you be certain that any reports are not just malicious unless you actually go yourself??

The awful owners get nothing from me, unlike from you. You have made yourself part of the problem. If you only believe what you see, what is the point of going to school and getting an education? You argument about having to go yourself doesn't hold water, can't you see that?

July 17, 20197 yr Author I only went so as to make the effort of interacting with my GF's Issan family, they all seemed to enjoy it, I just thought "oh my god these poor animals" Alligator Gar though looked very healthy in deep clear water.

You finally gave an honest reply in post #18, though, if you knew of the zoos reputation, why didn't you explain to your wife's family why it would be best not to go. It's not like there isn't other things to do and see in Phuket.
