This place is disgusting and by visiting this place you help keep it running. The baby Sun Bear is kept in a cage so tiny that there is not enough room for it to turn around in - it does not even have any water. The Macaque monkey is tethered to a pole by a lead secured around it's neck.... More

An Unbelievable number of crocs. Very different conditions to Taronga Zoo! Kids enjoyed feeding a few of the various animals. There is one croc there who they say ate 4 locals before he was caught and has been kept there since! Very sad and basic enclosures. Only drop in if nearby.

The crocodile farm is located nearRiver Baram and has a large number of crocodiles. There is also a small zoo with largely local animals. It is a pleasant enough place without being at all spectacular.

For tourists that like to taste the exotic fod, here's a place where they can visit during their trip in Miri. You can purchase the crocodile meat and have it cooked at the crocodile farm. Some say the crocodile meat taste like chicken. It's not suitable for Muslims to eat the crocodile meat but everyone is welcome for a tour... More

Interaction with some animals was great, we got to feed the bears personally, which was a treat. Close up to crocodiles scary but good.

Well, that was my first and last visit, that is for sure. The animals are badly kept and the horses were so thin you saw their ribs. Other animals in cages that are too small. Never ever going to visit this again and if there was an rspca in Malaysia I would call them asap!

If crocodiles are your thing, then it is awesome! If not, then there are only so many crocodiles that you will want to see piled up in the feeding pits. It is certainly an interesting outing, if only to explain to the kids why they really should not go into the Belait river. The main attractions are the crocodile feeding... More

if you are in this area and havent seen to many crocodiles before then it is worth seeing. It is good value and usually quiet. Animals and enclosures all look quite good and well looked after, a good opportunity to see some very large crocs up close. You can get up close and personal with snakes, sun bear, monkey and...

Well there are definitely lots of crocodiles here - of all different types including some very large ones. There are also other animals - monkeys, sun bears, binturongs etc. The conditions the animals in are not great though - with very small cages/enclosures. It's difficult because without any money from people visiting then the animal enclosures can't be improved, but... More
