The Audu Bako Zoological Garden, also known as the Kano Zoological Park, is a zoological garden located in Kano, Kano State, Nigeria. It is one of the oldest and largest zoological gardens in Nigeria, covering an area of approximately 46 hectares.

The Audu Bako Zoological Garden was established in 1972 and is home to a wide variety of animals, including lions, zebras, giraffes, elephants, monkeys, crocodiles, and various species of birds. The park also features a botanical garden with a variety of plant species. The park was named after Audu Bako, a former governor of Kano State who played a significant role in the establishment of the park. The name "Audu Bako Zoological Garden" is often used interchangeably with "Kano Zoological Garden" or "Kano Zoological Park."

The park is a popular tourist attraction in Kano, attracting both locals and visitors from other parts of Nigeria and beyond. It is open to visitors every day of the week, from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.

In recent years, the Kano Zoological Garden has faced some challenges, including inadequate funding, poor management, and a lack of proper facilities for the animals. However, efforts are being made to improve the park, including plans to build a new animal clinic and upgrade the existing facilities.
