Sumatra – The Mayor of Medan, Muhammad Bobby Afif Nasution together with Safari park, is gradually revitalizing Medan Zoo.

"The initial revitalization plan began in February 2024. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the schedule has been rearranged for the development of the Medan Zoo owned by the Medan City Government," Nasution said on Wednesday.

In the future development of Medan Zoo, Nasution stated that they are open to receiving assistance from any party. He mentioned that many others contribute to providing food for the animals residing in the zoo.
