" With the contour of the area where the zoo built actually it has a prospect to be a beautiful place. Unfortunately, the zoo need to be upgraded and need more maintenance. Also they need to arrange the street vendor inside the zoo and move them into a permanent shopping area outside. Because with all the tarp tent that the street vendor use, the zoo look so cluttered and messy.
13 April 2018The most sadden thing is that they chain the elephant to a pole. So it can't moves anywhere (It's consider as animal cruelty). If the reason is that the gate of the elephant area isn't strong enough than they should fix it immediately. Put the chain on animal isn't the solution .
I hope the zoo management together with Pemkot Bukittinggi find the solution immediately. "

" Jauh lebih bersih, rapi, dan terawat dibanding the last time I was there (which was 7 years ago😁). Honestly I didn't expect this place to be this good, so I was surprised when it looked great!
22 March 2018What makes me happier was because the animals were in great condition too (at least mostly, masih ada beberapa yang kandangnya kurang memadai, but still forgivable). Mudah2an para staf di sini selalu take a good care of them because if they didn't, I'd probably won't visit it again😁 "

Thanks to a very serious management by the Dutch colonial government, Bukittinggi Zoo continues to grow and achieve heyday in 1933. This year, farm animals Bukittinggi able to provide about 150 animals typical of the island of Sumatra at Surabaya Zoo. Conversely, Bukittinggi Zoo Surabaya Zoo received from a number of animals typical of Eastern Indonesia.

The long journey of this wildlife park could not help make it as a precious heritage for all the children of this nation. Therefore, to maintain its existence in order to remain sustainable is the glorious duty of every child slung over the shoulders of this country. "

" To be frank, this is the most pathetic zoo I've ever visited. The animal were not treated properly. The cage was awful and far from clean. All I can say to the management, should you read this comment, is: treat them well. Please. "

" Great place but the animals need to add more like elephant. Why did the elephant only 1. The management need to add more to increase the quality of the zoo. That is my opinion. "

" If you have nothing to do in Bukittinggi then it is worth a walk around. Entry is 15000 per person and includes Fort de kock and the zoo. Animals look pretty neglected. Elephants are tied up with front and back legs and thus don't look very happy. "

" It is the most upsetting moment I had was to visit this zoo in Bukittinggi. This type is zoo should not be allowed to exist as it is cruel to the animals to live in such small and crammed quarters. For the elephants to be tied up like that is disgusting. For goodness sake get into the 20th century and either update your zoo or let the animals free. I did read a few reviews of this zoo and the majority would agree with me------ a few ignorant people do not. Those people have not got a clue and should be tied up for a while "
