Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This place is not an ideal attraction for anyone that cares about the well-being of animals.
I never expected this place to be so terrible. The animals were kept in small cages. These cages were not kept clean, there was garbage, plastic, and feces all over the ground. The duck pond was disgusting and filthy. A few civet cat (known to make luwak coffee) were cramped into tiny wired cages. We even witnessed a staff throw water inside the cage for the animal to drink off the floor. This place is supposed to be a "sanctuary," but do they even know what that means? There were large snakes on the table without any supervision and many kept in plastic containers, which I could not understand.
Ultimately, don't bother giving them your business. I don't care if this is a family business that needs to be kept running to feed their family. The person who owns this is despicable and should be ashamed of the kind of business they are running.

We stopped off at this place as part of a tour of Bohol. I have never been so disturbed and hurt as I was today when I witnessed the way these animals were treated. I walked in, saw two large monkeys in concrete cages barely bigger than their bodies, and immediately left. I demanded my entrance fee back as I would never contribute to this kind of business. I am honestly appalled that this place has not been shut down and the owner arrested for animal abuse. Only visit this place if you find enjoyment in watching the torturing of wild animals.

The way the animals are kept is awful, it is not a park and the cages are all very very small. I regret going there and supporting this place with my money.

This park is horrible. They kept animal in a very small cages and all animals look so sad. The birds cannot fly. The ape cannot climb. The money cannot jump high. They are living in bad condition. The python was pretty cool, but it is terrible how they use them for commercial. I was taken here by tour program, I cannot stand seeing these animal in captive.

We visited here as part of a set island tour - we didn’t look into it further before going - definitely should have.
Not a pleasant place at all.
Tiny cages - no vegetarian at all. No apparent restriction and regulation about interacting with the animals they have there (monkey, lizards, crocodiles, snakes and butterflies) we felt that some of the animals were in an agitated condition due to over handling.
We both felt terrible about being there and regret that we unknowingly supported that.

It is nice to see the animals especially the python but the way they are taking good care of is so cruel. I feel so sad especially with the monkeys who were caged alone in a concrete cage.The snakes were kept inside a small bamboo cage and others were in a concrete cage. I find it disturbing. I hope the owner of this can do something about it. This is not how you treat animals.
Visiting here is like seeing how cruel human can be.

Went in because I was told it was a butterfly garden. When we came there I saw the snakes, monkeys, crocodiles and other animals in way too small cages, which didn't resemble their natural habitat in any way. I felt so sad for the animals and didnt enjoy it at all. Don't go here

At least there was a chance of escape from Alcatraz! Truly awful conditions for animals to be kept in. Rusting wire and pure concrete are the only things to enliven the poor creatures cells. Better for all involved if this place was closed.

We went there, thinking it would be a REAL sanctuary but it look like more like a prison for animals. Birds, monkeys and snakes are locked in smalls and awful cages. They look so sad... it's heartbroken and inhuman. The python seem miserable. Avoid it ! This place should close. If you love animals and want they wellbeing, don't go !

Was taken here as part of a tour. If any tour you go on advertises a butterfly and python sanctuary they will take you here. The monkeys are in a tiny cage with broken wires that are poking into their bodies. The cage is tiny and they have nothing to play with, just an empty cage. The snakes are also in tiny cages with no synthetic habitat, just on the concrete floor. There is a eagle in a cage with no room to fly around. The main attraction, the big python, was being terrorised by people coming into its cage and poking it. Overall, this place needs to be shut down.
