Zoo Plasy is a privately owned zoological garden located in the Plzeň region of the Czech Republic. It specializes in housing exotic animals, including large felines such as white lions, tigers, and leopards. The facility serves as a refuge for rescued animals and those from professional breeding programs. Visitors can observe a diverse range of species, including primates, reptiles, and various bird species. The site is integrated into a wider complex that includes recreational areas and an adventure mini-golf course. It emphasizes animal welfare and education rather than traditional circus-style exhibits. Most enclosures are designed to allow close-up viewing through reinforced glass or secure fencing. The park is situated on a landscaped property that balances animal habitats with visitor walkways.
