It’s purpose is for protection, re-acclimation and reproduction of the locally extinct and rare animals that are indicated in the Bible.

The entire tour takes around two hours, wherein the visitors must stay in their vehicles all throughout the exploration. An audio guided tape can be purchased or you might as well hire a private tour guide where they offer live vindication using their car.
