Kuyenda m'mayendedwe a zoo izi ndiyenera kupita nawo kunkhalango ina mkati mwa mzindawo, komwe mungapeze zomera, nyama, phokoso, fungo, mawonekedwe ndi mitundu. Green ndiye chimake chodziwika bwino cha ZooMAT, malo osungira nyama omwe ali ndi mbiri yapadera kuyambira pomwe adatsegula zitseko zawo m'malo osungira zachilengedwe a Zapotal, kum'mawa kwa mzinda wa Tuxtla Gutiérrez ku Chiapas.

Mwalamulo la boma komanso polemekeza Don Miguel, malo osungira nyamawa amadziwika kuti ZooMAT ndipo amadziwika kuti ndi amodzi mwabwino kwambiri ku Latin America chifukwa cha kapangidwe kake koyambirira.
Chimodzi mwazinthu zake ndikuti imangosonyeza nyama za ku Chiapas zokha. Ili ndi nyama zopitilira 800 zomwe zikuyimira mitundu pafupifupi 250 m'nkhalango yotsika ya Zapotal, malo osungira mahekitala 100, omwe 25 amakhala ndi malo osungira nyama ndi ena onse mdera lachilengedwe. Nyama zina zimapezeka m'malo otseguka, kutengera mwayi wachilengedwe cha malowo, zomwe zimawapangitsa kukhala m'malo awo achilengedwe. Nyama zofunikira kwambiri zachilengedwe zikuwonetsedwa, pakati pake chiwombankhanga chotchedwa harpy (Harpia arpija), tapir (Tapirus bairdii), otter river (Lontra longicaudis), saraguatos kapena anyani obangula (Alouatta paliata ndi A.pigra), atatu Mitundu ya ng'ona ya Chiapas, jaguar (Phantera onca), quetzal (Pharomacrus moccino), nkhuku yotentha (Agriocharis ocellata), ndi peacock bass (Orepahasis derbianus), mbalame yomwe ndi chizindikiro cha IHN.
Ku Chiapas, pafupifupi 90% ndi nyama zomwe zatsala pang'ono kutha, chifukwa chimodzi mwa ntchito zazikulu za ZooMAT ndikuthandizira kubzala nyama zowopsa monga scarlet macaw (Ara macao), zenzo (Tayassu pecari), nswala ya mbuzi (Mazamaamericana), ng'ona yam'madzi (Crocodylus moreletii), ng'ona yamtsinje (Crocodylus acutus), mileme (Noctilio leporinus), tigrillo (Felis wiedii) ndi kangaude (Ateles geoffroyi), pakati pa ena.
Muthanso kuwona zamoyo monga kavalidwe kakang'ono ka maliseche (Cabassous centralis), ndi cacomixtle (Bassariscus sumichrasti). Musaphonye vivarium, nyumba ya akangaude ndi tizilombo.
Njirayo ili ndi makilomita 2.5, ndipo mutha kuwona ma guaqueque ndi agologolo akuthamanga, akuuluka ndikuimba mbalame zamitundumitundu, ndipo mukakhala ndi mwayi mutha kuwona nswala zoyera ndikumvera magulu awiri anyani ofiira.
MMENE MUNGAPEZERE
Zoozi zili kum'mwera kwa mzinda wa Tuxtla Gutiérrez. Bwerani podutsa chakumwera kudutsa msewu wa Cerro Hueco. Mudzaizindikira ndi nkhalango yotentha komwe imapezeka.
