Start an adventure at Leipzig Zoo where nature is brought close for exploration across six distinct worlds: Founder's Garden, Gondwanaland, Asia, Africa, Pongoland, and South America. Home to over 850 animal species including rare ones like Amur leopards, Sumatran tigers, and western lowland gorillas, the zoo features expansive enclosures that replicate natural habitats.

Travel through Gondwanaland's jungle-like environment spanning two soccer fields in size. Discover nearly 170 exotic animal species and over 500 plant varieties along its winding paths, treetop trails, and mysterious rivers to experience tropical diversity firsthand.

In Pongoland, the world’s only great ape facility, observe chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans. The Leipzig Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology conducts research here while discovery stations invite you to explore further.

Experience a peaceful coexistence of giraffes, ostriches, zebras, and other savannah animals in their natural setting with excellent vantage points available for observation. Nearby predator enclosures allow close encounters with spotted hyenas separated by just a moat from their prey, alongside lions and meerkats.
