About Us
One Touch Of Nature Makes The Whole World Kin
Maydy National Zoo is a green oasis in the middle of the thriving metropolis and home to more than 4,500 animals (in about 450 different species!). Here you will find proud African animals next to feisty seals and majestic tigers, right around the corner from cheeky otters.
In the Secret House day becomes night as you immerse yourself into the secretive animal world of Madagascar. Fishes, sea horses, penguins, snakes and crocodiles all mill around in the Exotarium (aquarium and reptile house). In our forest ape house you can encounter our hominid “relatives” in a genuine jungle atmosphere.
