We’re giving you a behind the scenes look at the design of the Zoo’s new Sumatran tiger habitat!

Follow along with our experts to learn more about this complex and unique build that sees the creation of two tiger bridges that link to three separate habitat areas – allowing us flexibility to manage Sumatran tigers Ramah and Zayana, and any offspring they may have in the future!

Their stunning habitat includes a climbing tree for enriching feeds, a bespoke wall that enables behavioural training for health checks, themed tiger dens, as well as a cascading waterfall, beach area and bamboo thickets for the tigers to rest in. Their warm indoor area features an incredible ‘bio-floor’ made from a naturalistic substrate that is soft on their paws.

Our senior curator of mammals Warren explains, “We've packed through the entire area with complexity, the reason that we've provided so much of this is we want to give the tigers choice. It's their habitat, they decide where they want to be.”
