Zoosafari Fasanolandia is an animal attraction and theme park in Fasano in southern Italy. The park includes a drive-through safari park in the visitor's own vehicle as well as walk around animal areas, animal shows, and several rides. The park opened in 1973 and includes the only male African elephant in Italy.
The park is located in the town of Fasano in the province of Brindisi, Apulia, in southern Italy. It is on a Mediterranean hillside overlooking the sea. The park covers more than 150 acres (61 ha).
Tropical Room: After exiting the reserves, a number of reserves can be viewed on foot, the first of which is the tropical room. Alligators and terrapins can be seen in a large tank, and many snakes, lizards, and tortoises can be seen as well. Several amphibians can also be seen along with many fish.
Several species at the park provide performances for the visitors at various times each day. Penguins and sea lions perform together and parrot shows are also available to see. Dolphin shows are incredibly popular with visitors due to the fact that not many parks keep dolphins or let them perform.[citation needed]
