Reptilienzoo Allgäu

PRO: Interesting variety of reptiles. Quite a privilege to be able to see them all together.

CONS: The big turtle and some of the reptiles look deeply depressed; you can realize that by looking at the big turtle constantly spinning around in the box and the reptiles scratching the glass of the boxes, looking completely idle. It's pretty sad.
The building where the animals are kept is an extremely old one. You can sense the smell of mold upon entering the zoo. The building roof has big patches of humidity and some of the boxes where the animals are have a lot of mold. I have also observed a lot of the fish aquariums were extremely dirty and there are a lot of tanks with plastic plans. I am not a zoologist but you don't have to be one to realize that the conditions are not adequate.

I left the place crying and I am only happy I went for the money contribution.

It is just such a perfect place. You see the love what the employees have for their animals. It is made and cared for with so much compassion. The price is totally good for what you can see and learn. We've been there twice. We saw the crocodile beeing feed and the second time even got a chance to hold a snake. The employees are very knowledgeable about all they're animals. Love love love this place. parking right in front of the door.

We didn't get to see the place, it opened only at 11am. (Maybe it has to do with the sleep cycle of the animals?) In any case, it was a rather unpleasant experience to come at 10:30 and find the place close. The location itself also isn't ideal, it feels more like a disaffected industrial zone, where people go to buy drugs, than a place for a zoo or museum. That being said, maybe the place inside is great, I don't know.

Small reptile zoo, quite pricey but then again I'd pay this for the animals' care. There are so many animals to see for such a small place. They also have some small mammals and a few birds. The parrots are pretty cool and loud. You follow the information by scanning a QR-code, it's available in multiple languages. The entrance is very crowded as upon entering you have to pay, there are terrariums right next to you and the gift shop is there too. I hope this business thrives and has the chance to expand.

Great places to see for a few African reptiles and a talking parrots are always fun.

Small but a very interesting place.

Im not a big fan of zoo's. But this place created with love to animals and full of care of them. I recommend to visit this zoo if you want to discover new for you and spand nice time with your kids, friends or even for yourself.
Thank you guys for you amazing work!
