Why it's Wildland
4.5Behind floor-to-ceiling glass, Tiger Territory brings visitors close to London Zoo’s Sumatran tigers and Northern white-cheeked gibbons. Its Indonesian-inspired setting includes tall trees and high feeding poles designed around the tigers’ climbing and observing behaviour.
This is a focused wildlife encounter rather than a wild landscape: its appeal is the close view of Sumatran tigers and gibbons, alongside a glimpse of how a habitat is designed to encourage natural behaviours. It earns its place for that specific animal and conservation story within London Zoo.
