The Neuwied Zoo (German: Zoo Neuwied) is a zoo located on the edge of the town of Neuwied, Rhineland-Palatinate. It borders the Rhine-Westerwald Nature Park. In 2007, the zoo had over 270,000 visitors. The zoo covers an area of around 13.5 hectares and features around 1,543 animals of 183 species. This figure includes the largest herd of grey kangaroos outside of Australia in a roughly 3.5 hectare enclosure co-housed with red-necked wallabies and emus. Additionally since 2004, a small breeding pack of extinct in the wild Barbary lions have lived in the zoo, which brought ten cubs into the world up to 2010. Four chimpanzees and three different species of New-World monkey live in a large new primate house. Lions, tigers and cheetahs make up the group of big cats which have a feeding system not seen anywhere else in Germany. In a spacious open-air enclosure (the “African Savannah”), you can see a herd of Ankola-Watusi cattle which live alongside sitatungas and ostriches. In addition, there is a large aviary with southern ground hornbills. More information...
