In this zoo visitors can come into direct contact with animals.
At the Zúrich Zoo you can see many protected animal species, or species in danger of extinction. One section, housing particularly exotic creatures, is now home to birds from the tropical rain forests, apes and reptiles, often together with other species, in surroundings that perfectly replicate their natural habitat.
Its aim is to make visitors aware of the importance of caring for both the environment’s plants and animals.
