Zoo Zürich – a fascinating experience
|
|
Enjoy the sight of the snow leopards in their rocky Himalaya landscape, watch the Andean bears as they go climbing in search of food in their misty mountain world, and admire the giant turtles swimming in the Masoala Rainforest, where it is warm and humid all year round – a fragrant, tropical green oasis. Enjoy this piece of Madagascar live on 11,000 square meters. Elephants, rhinos, penguins and 20 species of monkey are just some of the animals on the Zürichberg that will transport you into an exotic world – with all your senses.
