泰國第一家動物園 | Dusit Zoo | สวนสัตว์ดุสิต

Suan dusit

     When I was 10 years old my mother bought me to the zoo. I really excited back there, because it was  my really first time to get the chance to go to the zoo. Which they have so many animal in the middle of Bangkok.This is the first zoo in Thailand plus they've open this zoo for over 80 years already with over 1600 species of domestic and international animals, including of 331 mammals,170 reptiles and  849 birds


     The beginning of  the zoo. 
          In the past Dusit zoo original name was call "KHAO DIN WANA" King Rama V during his foreign country visits become impressed of botanical garden as a place for relax and entertaining for the people,and so his majesty adviced that a botanical garden should be established in Thailand.


           In 1895, His Majesty gave royal permission for the garden to be build on land east of premprachakorn canal, across from Chitrlada Palace. A large lake wa dug up with connecting canals and roads, dirt excavated from the digging was pile into a mountain in the middle of the garden that the reason why they called "Khao din"
- khao mean mountain 
- Din mean soil or dirt
- together = earth mountain
Various trees were planted and called "wanna" which means forest. And so the whole area was called "KHAO DIN WANA" 
            
           At first the garden was part of the palace compound and used for the private enjoyment of the royal family and palace staff.Later during king Rama VII /'s reign,His Majesty advised that this garden should be expanded and improved for the enjoyment of the general public.  



             After Thailand changed from and absolute into a constitutional monarchy in 1932, Prime Minister P. Piboonsongkram asked royal permission of  King Rama VIII, passed into law te designation of the areas of " Khao Din Wana", Sanam Sua Pa" and "Suan Umporn" into public park.

    
           The Bangkok municipality then transferred Axus Deer and various animals from Suan Umporn,  plus crocodiles and monkeys from Suan Saranrom into the zoo. A request was also made for royal elephants from the palace to be shown at the zoo on Sundays. After all the renovations were finished, the zoo was open to the public on March 18th, 1983 and henceforth officially called "DUSIT ZOO"


             The ticket cost  - Adult 150 baht
                                                - Child   70 baht
          Don't forget to ask for the map it's free guys.


"Dusit zoo Map"

      open everyday  -  8:00 a.m. - 6 p.m.


  tram ride price - Adult  25 baht
                                                  child   10 baht

      Advice : when you wanted to take the tram ride. I would like to recommended you guys to check the map carefully first. Because this is what happen to us. We wanted to go see the sea lion show, but we didn't check the map first and it's just behind us. So we take one big round and come back to the same place again. 
        This is how the trim ride goes, the trim ride will get back from where you take. But along the way you can go up and down as you like but when it's reach starting point that's will be end of the trip. Check the map carefully guys so this won't  happen to you.


         For the water bicycle rental price 30 mins  --- 80 baht / 1


      
                The water bicycle can take 2 adult and 1 child. On that day the weather quite hot. But when We're on the water bicycle it's become so windy. It's because of all the tree , I felt so relaxing and peaceful. (relax till my niece fall asleep )

        Throw the ball into the Basketball hoop


           So after we finished watch Seal show ,We walk around the area see many animals. This is how it's looks.


                Walk awhile then see this,but inside quite dark so we didn't get any photo. But this place is all about the animals that hunting in night time. Inside this look like a cave.But got light along the way don't worry guys.


      After we walk half way and take the trim ride,  We saw this statue .So i keep wondering what's so special about it and why this Schomburgk's deer  statue is putting in front of the gate. So i go back to do some research and here the reason why.


            And this is what happen,it's because of the  Commercial production of rice for export began in the late-19th century in Thailand, leading to the loss of nearly all grassland and swamp areas on which this deer depended plus Intensive hunting pressure at the turn of the century restricted the species further until it became extinct. Because of over hunting in 1932, with the last captive individual being killed in 1938.The species was listed as extinct in the 2006.


           So this is the reason why they put this deer statue, and why " the zoological park organization" using Schomburgk's deer as logo. The reasons because to remind people of wildlife conservation.
