Bohol Albuquerque Zoo

Bohol Albuquerque Zoo is located in Albuquerque, Upper Santa Fe, Bohol.

 

The zoo, also referred to as sanctuary, is surrounded by tall coconut palm trees and other hardwood species.

 

What you see inside the zoo is the "Prony," a 25-foot python, believed to be the world’s largest python in captivity. The python weighs more than 200 kilos with a 28 inches body width. With this size, it is said to be that of a 40-year old python, but the python is still young. It was caught in October 21, 1996, with a weight of 5 kilos and a length of 5 feet.

 

Aside from this python, there are also birds of different species.

 

Recently, the sanctuary is now being developed as an eco-tourism destination.
