BIND9 for a long time has stored the received zone files in a quicker
to parse raw binary format for quicker loading for people with large # of zones.

Its been this way for years and years.

You can configure BIND to store files in text format instead of raw format.
masterfile-format text;

To check the contents you can configure BIND to allow a 'dig @localhost zone.com axfr'

Or you can convert the files from raw format to text format via this KB
