History & Context

Edinburgh Zoo is home to the largest outdoor penguin pool in Europe Following the successful and hugely popular Phase I of the Darwin Centre, featuring the Darwin maze and picnic shelter, we now look forward to - yes, you’ve guessed it! - Phase II. This LEEL funded project will include new homes for marmosets and tamarins, and innovative state-of-the-art interpretation on biodiversity. There will also be a physic garden - that is a veterinary physic garden which will tell you all about the use of plants in veterinary medicine - many exciting mysteries of this topic will be revealed. We are very excited to announce plans for building completely new enclosures for our lions and tigers. They will be on the hilltop, in wooded slopes, with lots of space for these marvellous big cats to roam. The lion enclosure - which will be home to rare Asiatic lions - will be opening in 1999, and the tiger enclosure for our Siberians will open in celebration of the new millennium.
