★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Open to public Fri-Sun. Knowledgeable guides who are biologists give you a tour explaining all about the animals which are mostly native to Mexico. Tour lasts about 1 1/2 hour, costs $100 pesos (children under a certain age cost less). You learn about their conservation efforts. If you go on a weekday you get an abreviated tour

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Checked out the Yaguar Zoo Xoo just before Mitla, toady. It's more of a reserve than a zoo and they treat the animals really well. But nobody knows they are out there and they are struggling financially. The guide we had was extremely knowledgeable and passionate. And her English was good too. Please check it out! Their focus is on rehabilitation but the animals you can see can not be returned to the wild for various reasons.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place for both adults and kids. It’s not a zoo, it’s a sanctuary where they take care of rescued animals. They have both Jaguars, lions, pumas, a huge snake and much more, they tell the story of each animal and how they’ve been rescued from the circus, homes (!!) etc, very sad but also great that the animals ended up here instead!! Open on weekends, with guided tours. Highly recommend to go here and support the work they do for the animals, I really enjoyed it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is an amazing place and the people there are doing a great job trying to preserve the wildlife, specially the jaguars.
You can watch the animals very close, like monkeys, bears, a crocodile and a Burmese python. Then you go to the felines, lions, tigers, pumas, and jaguars. It's fantastic.
The place is an NGO so they depend on the entrance fees and donations, so be sure to help them out.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great experience! Please SUPPORT this sanctuary. It is self funded, and it cost very little to go on the tour. We will go again next year and plan on sending a few bus loads there. People who live there are not able to pay for the tour.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This was an amazing experience. The sanctuary is doing so much good for the animals. It was nice hearing about their rescue stories and how the sanctuary is helping animals heal and live good lives. We were easily able to take a taxi from Oaxaca and had no issue finding one back to the city.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Overall rating: 10/10 ?
Personal experience: I’m a Backpacker that travel across America, in the last month I travel through Mexico. If there is a place that I won’t miss is the Jaguar Zoo Xoo.
You see a variety of big cats ?and they are so adorable.
— Strong Side —
* Professional guides (a volunteer biologist).
* There is an option for English tour ??
* The cages are close (but there is a safety space) so you can see from relly close the animals.
— Weak Spot —
* If you don’t come by car there is a problem of getting back to Oaxaca city (took for us 45 min to find a ride back to the city).
