Introduction
Being
the largest crocodile farm in Sabah, we accommodate more than 1,000 crocodiles
in our newly established (February 2005) tourist attraction on 7 acres of land
adjacent to the Sulaman Highway, Tuaran. With more than 50 years of experience,
the farm is packed with ample knowledge on crocodile captive breeding and
farming, and has an international reputation for producing superior quality raw
skins and meat.
Exhibits
Though
we are primary engaged in crocodile breeding, and currently house over 1000
crocodiles, you will also find a vibrant array of animal species for your
viewing pleasure. These include turtles, snakes (pythons), birds, deer,
ostriches, monitor lizards, bearcats, fish (aropaima, catfish, etc.).
The
majority of these animals were donated. Some like the monitor lizards were
actually captured by our farm workers as they proved to be somewhat of a
nuisance feeding in our fish ponds.
If
the thought of encountering living dinosaurs thrills you, we’re pleased to
present you the Tuaran Crocodile Farm—a must-visit place for all Crocodile
Dundee and Steve Irwin fanatics!
Located 32 kilometers
(circa 40 minutes away) from the Kota Kinabalu city, this crocodile farm which
was opened back in 2004 is a sanctuary for some 5,000 crocodiles. Among the
species of crocodiles kept in the farm are the Buaya Tembaga (Crocodylus Porosus)—which
can live both in freshwater and saltwater, the Nile Crocodile, the Aqua
Crocodile (bisexual crocodile), and the Gharial Crocodile.
The 11-acre large farm also
houses a variety of other animals such as two Borneo Anacondas measuring 28 and
20 feet each, the adorable and friendly Binturong bearcats, ostriches, deer, as
well as ponds of catfish and koi fish—which are always in anticipation for
visitors to feed them. Should you be lucky, you will also get the chance to
take a sneak peek at cute baby crocs in the nursery.
The crocodile farm is
situated at Kg. Lok Batik, Jalan Sulaman Highway Tuaran and is open daily from
8.30a.m to 5.30p.m.
