I remember seeing a leopard there (maybe 2?) when I visited for the first time in 2008. The reptile section in the corner also had a king cobra,...
The tiger shark isn't there anymore, at least it's not on display in the main shark tank.
I was just there yesterday. There was no tiger shark and no sign to suggest there should be one. The shark tank had scalloped hammerheads, nurse...
Agree with this. It's not as simple as "we're right and they're stupid." There's absolutely nothing wrong with looking at things critically and...

That looks really decent. Chinese zoos in general have been getting a lot better recently, but even in good zoos, the carnivores still often get...
For me, it was few Australian animals which I'd always been interested in, but never had the chance to see in person: koala, platypus, wombat and...
