Jungle Island
An offshoot of Parrot Jungle, which was established in 1936,
Jungle Island is a new complex offering an exciting array of
wildlife from parrots and macaws to crocodiles and penguins. You
can witness over 200 parrots at the Manu Encounter, the world's
only aviary replicating the clay cliffs of Manu, Peru and at the
Parrot Bowl, a gaping amphitheatre, you can be entertained by the
clever antics of cockatoos, parrots and macaws. Look out for the
rare albino alligator and 21-foot crocodile at the Serpentarium. A
new addition to Jungle Island is the waterpark featuring the
168-foot Hippo Slide, with an exhilarating 40-degree drop.
