There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I definitely want to put this zoo on my bucket list, but I agree, the smaller zoos sometimes allow a much more intimate atmosphere.
I wanted to go check out the Al Ain Zoo in dubai when Im there next month but it's looking like I'm not going to make it.
It looks to be mostly uncovered and its going to be 110+ degrees while we are there and I don't think we'd be able to maintain our stamina throughout the massive zoo, plus its about an hour and a half away and it pretty much would take up most of our day, we are only there for 2 days so it's looking less and less likely.

Some images from the Al Ain Zoo
