🐾 A Wild Christmas at Clark Safari

This Christmas, instead of the usual family dinner or mall stroll, we decided to do something a little different—we celebrated the festive season with wildlife.

It was my dad’s idea. He casually mentioned he wanted to visit a zoo, and as an animal lover, I couldn’t agree fast enough. So, on Christmas morning, we packed up and drove to Clark Safari in Pampanga, one of the newest zoological parks in the area.

The place was buzzing with energy—families taking pictures, kids pointing excitedly at animals, and of course, the occasional “Wow!” at the massive animal statues scattered around the grounds. These towering figures weren’t just for show—they made perfect backdrops for family photos (and maybe a few selfies, too).

Clark Safari has a growing collection of animals, and while not every enclosure was full—some were still under development—it didn’t take away from the experience. One story that stood out to us was about the rescued horses from the Taal Volcano eruption. It was touching to see them safe and healthy, and it reminded me that zoos can be places of second chances too.

We spent the rest of the day wandering through exhibits, laughing at animal antics, and soaking up the unexpected joy of a Christmas spent differently—outdoors, among creatures from all over the world.
