In 1999, the zoo underwent a significant renovation to better replicate the natural habitats of the various animal species. The aim was to provide a more authentic and enriching experience for visitors. The zoo reopened to the public on December 6, 2002, with the renovation process continuing in different areas to further enhance the visitor experience.
The new zoo features a thematic distribution of animal and plant species, organized by continents. Within each continent, the most representative biomes or ecological zones are showcased. This arrangement allows visitors to experience a variety of habitats and ecosystems from around the world, all within the confines of the zoo.
The zoo has expanded to include new areas that represent different habitats. These include the arid and semi-arid zone of Mexico, the coastal zone, the tropical zone of Mexico, and the grasslands zone. Additionally, a quarantine area with a veterinary hospital has been constructed for the care of the animals, ensuring their well-being and health.
