An African-themed amusement park in the hills of Dashu, Kaohsiung, opened in 1992 by the entrepreneur Dai Sheng-yi (戴勝益), later founder of the Wowprime restaurant group (王品集團). The original name is in zhuyin and roughly corresponds to Bībī (逼逼). It was the first park in Taiwan to offer ostrich rides, briefly sparking an ostrich-riding craze, alongside camel rides and encounters with exotic animals. It was renamed Great Africa Wildlife Park (大非洲野生動物園) in 1993 and is remembered for a 1996 ostrich-back wedding billed as a Guinness world record. The park closed in 2001 and was subsequently demolished; the site has since become the Huayi Leisure Farm (華一休閒農場).
