Artis Royal Zoo, AmsterdamĪrtis is the oldest Zoo in the Netherlands and you will find it in the heart of Amsterdam. Most zoos have a diversity of mammals, fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and shellfish. In the Netherlands, we have different kinds of zoological gardens. Some of them are specialized in one species. So if you like to visit a zoo in the Netherlands, here is some practical information. 
Some zoos have special themed days about a certain animal species, sometimes you can even see or touch these animals up close.
Zoos can play a role in the conservation of animal species. Some zoos are affiliated with scientific institution that studies animal behavior. A zoo gives you the opportunity to view animals from other continents. In some countries, the situation for animals in zoos is sometimes appallingly bad, with too small cages, too poor care, and little entertainment, a dull and mind-numbing life is the fate of these animals. How animals are treated in zoos is not the same everywhere. The animals have a spacious living space and live in an environment that closely resembles their natural habitat. In Dutch zoos, the animals are treated well and well cared for by committed animal caretakers. But I also have mixed feelings and doubts about animals in captivity. I like zoos and every now and then I enjoy visiting one of them.
