Stanice přírodovědců
This is a very small collection, mainly focused on fish and reptiles, with a few birds, mammals, and some domestic animals mixed in.
If you go here, don’t expect too much. It’s compact and fairly basic, but still interesting to walk through. They do seem to keep rarer species on and off, so depending on timing, you might get lucky and see something very or semi-rare.
Overall, it might not really be a destination on its own, but if you’re already in the area, it’s a quick stop worth checking out!
