I went to the zoo and saw an animal.

I had gone to the zoo and had seen an animal (Or "and seen an animal")

Matching tenses in both parts.

Also, regarding your question: don't forget to put the verb first!

Is it correct.

It's correct means you are telling me that it is correct, not that you are asking whether or not it is correct.

One other possibility:

I went to the zoo and saw an animal I had seen before.

When you want to talk about two actions, and one action is in the past, and the other action is also in the past, but even "more past" than the first action, then the first past action is expressed with the past tense and the second past action, which happened before the first action, is expressed with the past perfect.

I sealed the envelope after I had placed the letter in it. =
I
