— Additional Information —
Yokohama Zoo Zoorasia is one of the largest zoos in Japan that keeps,
displays, and breeds wild animals from all over the world. We are also
actively working on the reintroduction of rare species on the verge of
extinction and research for that purpose.
The tropical forests of Asia. The tropical rainforests are a treasure trove of diverse creatures. A tree that stretches through the thick greenery is reproduced. Many rare species that inhabit Asia, such as Indian elephants, Bornean orangutans, and Sumatran tigers, welcome you.
In an area of subarctic forests with coniferous forests, there will be an exhibition hall that mimics the mountains and the Arctic in summer. The lively appearance of animals, such as golden takin moving on steep rocks and polar bears swimming through glass, is also a highlight of the zone.
The grasslands of Oceania is an area, which has a unique landscape created by repeating the dry and rainy seasons. It is symbolized by large rocky areas and tall and vigorous eucalyptus. How about having a leisurely meal at the Aussie Hill restaurant while watching red kangaroos go at their own pace?
Central Asia's highlands, which are largely dominated by Russia, China, and Mongolia, is home to some of the world's rarest animals. You can meet dolls and proboscis monkeys that are raised only here in Japan.
"Satoyama" refers to forests that have been modified by Japanese mountain villagers. Japan's biodiversity is one of the largest in the world. Japanese raccoon dogs and Japanese macaques, which have been loved by Japanese people since ancient times, and the Tsushima leopard cat, which is endemic to Japan, live here.
The Amazon River that crosses the Amazonian jungle continent and the vast forests that interact with it give rise to crawling roots and marshes. It is home to animals that have evolved to suit their environment, such as the bush dog that runs around in the jungle and the spectacled bear, the only bear on the South American continent. “Waku Waku Plaza” with the Okapi Slide is also very popular with children.
The African tropical rainforest is a zone that recreates the Congo River Basin, which flows through the central part of the African continent. Animals with forms suitable for their habitat, including the okapi, live here. You can enjoy the feeling of following the footsteps of researchers, such as the remains of the expedition's camp and the "Chimpanzee Forest," which mimics a chimpanzee nature reserve.
In addition to the prairie, which is a representative landscape of the African savannah, the surrounding environment of sparse forests, wetlands, rocky areas and grasslands is also reproduced. You can observe the sociality of animals in the mixed exhibition of carnivores and herbivores. At the bird show, you can also feel close to the animals.
At Wanpaku no Mori "Pakapaka Hiroba", you can feed ponies, ride horses, and interact with cute guinea pigs and panda mice, which are popular with small children. We also recommend the Nature Experience Forest where you can enjoy seasonal flowers and wild birds. At Korokoro Hiroba, you can enjoy a picnic lunch.
