Nishiyama Zoo — Zoo in Sabae

Nishiyama Zoo and its collection

Nishiyama Zoo is a zoo in 鯖江市, Japan.

This is a free municipal zoo set on a low hill in Nishiyama Park. The red panda is the city's official animal, and as of 2018 the zoo kept 11 of them, one of the largest groups in the country despite the size of the site. All descend from a pair given by the Beijing Zoo in 1984.
