Q8 Zoo

Mehr enjoys the sights and sounds of animals and birds. So we decided to take her to the zoo. The weather is pleasant, so thought; it would not strain her even if we move around the entire day. Kuwait Zoo is open every day from 8am to 8pm in winter, and from 8am to 12 noon and 4pm to 8pm during summer. Located in Omariya on the Airport Road, entrance is 500 fils and for children it is free. The telephone number of the zoo authorities is 2473 3389. Call if you need any information.
Did get to see some unusual animals. Mehr could not control her excitement when she saw the animals. The animals are taken good care of and their cages are installed with A/C’s. Lucky animals! There was extensive damage done to the premises and the animals during the Iraqi invasion. However, most of the repair work has been completed and the zoo is now open to the public. Today, the Kuwait Zoo houses 65 species of animals, 129 species of birds and five species of reptiles, apart from other animals such as lions, tigers, elephants, giraffes, zebras and many more. As we were moving around, we were blessed to see the ostrich lay two big egg’s just in front of us.
Food is allowed inside. Lot of Kuwaiti families were enjoying their picnic at the park of the zoo. There are also 3restaurants, so you can pass time accordingly. Need not think about your lunch. There is also a toy train.You will relish the experience as it takes you on a tour of the zoo. Ticket price is cheap,just 250fils.

Sharing few pictures that I had taken. Enjoy!!!!
