Zanzibar Kilosas Conservation in Nungwi is a small private zoo started by Kilosa Haji Kilosa in the 1980s, holding monkeys, reptiles, turtles, ostriches, crocodiles and small antelope, and presented as a refuge for animals found injured or orphaned on the island. Entry is cheap and the tour is short. Some of the monkeys are loose and will climb on visitors, and they can bite, so keep children close and do not encourage contact.
The main goals of Zanzibar Kilosas Conservation are to raise awareness about conservation efforts and provide a safe environment for endangered species. Guided tours allow visitors to touch and feed animals while learning about conservation. The facility actively involves the community to foster a sense of responsibility towards nature. Zanzibar Kilosas Conservation aims to educate people about the importance of preserving diverse plant and animal life.
