Gembira Loka Zoo is a zoological park in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, operated by PT Buana Alam Tirta and identified on its website as a conservation institution. The zoo offers visitors opportunities to discover animals across themed areas, including bird, mammal, reptile, primate, petting zoo, and clawed-animal zones.
