Overview
Everland Zoo, officially known as Zootopia, is an immersive wildlife attraction located within Everland Resort, South Korea's largest theme park in Yongin, a city in Gyeonggi-do province. Everland Zoo stands out due to its unique blend of fun, education, and conservation efforts. The zoo features many exhibits and experiences designed to enhance public awareness of biodiversity, provide engaging educational experiences, and support global conservation initiatives.
Visitors to Everland Zoo are treated to an experience that goes beyond the ordinary. The zoo offers a variety of animal viewing opportunities through exhibits that simulate natural habitats as closely as possible. One of the key highlights is the Safari World, a ride-through experience where guests can see lions, tigers, and bears roaming freely. For a more intimate interaction, guests can visit the Animal Wonder stage, where animal shows occur. A visit to the Lost Valley featuring the country's largest ecological safari with an amphibious vehicle journey makes for an unforgettable experience.
Everland Zoo plays a significant role in wildlife conservation, notably through its breeding programs to preserve endangered species. The zoo is recognized for successfully breeding cheetahs, an endangered species with a low reproduction rate. It also participates in global conservation efforts for endangered species like the giant panda. Alongside these efforts, the zoo educates visitors about the importance of wildlife preservation and the environmental threats many species face today.
