Tennoji Zoo

Tennoji Zoo houses some 1,500 animals of 300 different species, including koalas, lesser pandas, elephants, and the only kiwi bird in Japan (kept in the nocturnal animal house which replicates the habitat of night animals). To promote better understanding of animals� natural habitats and their relationship with the natural environment, as well as awareness of the necessity for environmental protection, the zoo opened the reptile house in 1995, followed by the hippopotamus house in 1997. In the hippopotamus house the underwater behavior of these animals can be observed for the first time in Japan.
