There are many birds and some koalas in K-land Zoo.
Q:
Can we say: In K-land Zoo, there are many birds and some koalas.
Someone told me that it is an inverted sentence. The sentence has to be like this: In K-land Zoo are many birds and some koalas.
Or In K-land Zoo has many birds and some koalas.
I do not know which is right and why.
Thank you |

You can say it in several ways.
Your suggestion is perfectly correct. (In K-land Zoo, there are many birds and some koalas.)
In K-land Zoo are many birds and some koalas. Is correct English, too.
K-land Zoo has many birds and some koalas. (You don't need "in" with has) |
