The Kaamulan Grounds in Malaybalay City, Bukidnon has truly undergone quite a renovation. After the construction of a water fountain and a footbridge, it will now soon be the home of picnic facilities, a playground and a zoo.

The Bukidnon Zoo, which is set to open on February 26, 2019 March 5, 2019 (the provincial government changed the date), will feature various animals such as deer, bear cat, parrot, monkey, crocodile, boar, snakes, lizards, peacock, ostrich and birds of different species. What a lot of netizens got revved up, though, is the tiger.

The Bukidnon Zoo entrance fees are as follows:

15 years old and above – Php 20.00

6 to 14 years old – Php 5.00

5 years old and below – free entrance

Scroll down for rules to take note of while at the zoo.
