The park is located on Al Warqa 5 on the Hatta Road. The park has around 3000 animals from 78 species of mammals – including 10 different carnivores and 17 primates, 50 types of reptiles, 111 kinds of birds, and amphibians and invertebrates. The park replaced the Dubai Zoo on its 50th anniversary. On May 15, 2018, the park closed for renovations and improvements until being reopened in October 2020. Dubai Safari Park has five key areas: African Village, Explorer village, Asian Village, Arabian Desert Safari, and Al Wadi. Visitors can also explore the free-roaming areas, such as the Safari Journey and Kids Farm. The park also has two themed souvenir shops Zwadi and Soko, which are located in African Village and the main building respectively. Each shop has a range of items, such as toys, plush animals, apparel, gifts and souvenirs to commemorate the visit to the park.

Living reptiles comprise turtles, crocodilians, squamates (lizards and snakes) and rhynchocephalians (tuatara). As of March 2022, the Reptile Database includes about 11,700 species. Reptiles are tetrapod vertebrates, creatures that either have four limbs or, like snakes, are descended from four-limbed ancestors. Unlike amphibians, reptiles do not have an aquatic larval stage. Most reptiles are oviparous, although several species of squamates are viviparous, as were some extinct aquatic clades - the fetus develops within the mother, using a (non-mammalian) placenta rather than contained in an eggshell. As amniotes, reptile eggs are surrounded by membranes for protection and transport, which adapt them to reproduction on dry land. Many of the viviparous species feed their fetuses through various forms of placenta analogous to those of mammals, with some providing initial care for their hatchlings. Extant reptiles range in size from a tiny gecko, Sphaerodactylus ariasae, which can grow up to 17mm to the saltwater crocodile, Crocodylus porosus, which can reach over 6m in length and weigh over 1,000kg. In the 13th century the category of reptile was recognized in Europe as consisting of a miscellany of egg-laying creatures, including "snakes, various fantastic monsters, lizards, assorted amphibians, and worms. The origin of the reptiles lies about 310–320 million years ago, in the steaming swamps of the late Carboniferous period, when the first reptiles evolved from advanced reptiliomorphs. All reptiles breathe using lungs. Most reptiles lack a secondary palate, meaning that they must hold their breath while swallowing. ■ REFERENCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubai_S... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reptile https://www.google.com/maps/place/Dub... ■ REMARKS: Please don't forget to like, share, subscribe and leave a comment to my channel and click "ON" the notification bell for the latest video updates.
