Lorikeet

this nose-to-beak experience with a chance to enter an
aviary full of brilliantly colored lorikeets and feed them
nectar right out of your hand. It's an experience you won't
want to miss.
Alice
S. Etscorn
Tiger Tundra: Get
a close up view of the most
magnificent cats on earth! Catch an eye level
view of Amur tigers through a
reinforced glass barrier.
Gorilla
Forest: A walk through Gorilla Forest is like a walk
through Africa. A stop at Hippo Falls to see the Pygmy
hippos in their pool is just what you need before pressing
deeper into the forest in search of the magnificent Western
lowland gorillas.
THE ISLANDS: This exhibit offers
visitors the chance to travel to the Islands
to enjoy playful orangutans, awesome Sumatran tigers,
tapirs, babirusa and siamangs which
all rotate
habitats within this award-winning complex. Inside
the Islands Pavilion you'll find everything from Cuban
crocodiles to penguins - plus a large walk-through
aviary.
King Louie, the rare white alligator
is waiting for your visit in the HerpAquarium. This indoor
exhibit features reptiles, amphibians and fish exhibited in
their natural habitats. A walk outside takes you to the
amazing Komodo Dragon exhibit.
