    Exceptionally constructed to give the feeling of being within a deep magnificently mysterious rainforest. The waterfalls, pools, ponds and streams which contain many of the animals and fish have been splendidly designed. To create a near perfect harmonious environment of biological ecosystem of heat and high humidity. Excellent place to visit in the extreme cold of winter, to fully warm up your body & spirit. 💜💙💜🐉 Do Like 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

    I visited Jungle World several days ago and while I am a big fan of the goals of the WCS, I must say I was taken aback by one particular exhibit. The leopard(black panther) that is currently housed in Jungle World is clearly in a sub standard enclosure for an animal so large. The constant pacing indicative of stress and displeasure made me sad to see such a majestic animal being treated this way. Shame on anyone who is involved in this outright abuse of a magnificent animal. Mike August Cant believe I posted this a month ago and have not received a response. Obviously they don't care about their animals as the profess!!!!

    One of the best exhibits at the zoo! A variety of birds, reptiles, mammals and fish.

    Honestly I have to say the Jungle World is one of the best zoos I've ever been to! They have so many great animals to see and lots of places to eat and get drinks! My favorite part is Jungle World which has the gibbons in it. I love taking photos of them! The zoo also has brew at the zoo which is fun! Even in the winter the zoo is great because there are less crowds and still so much to do! I also love how the parking is right off the highway! Definitely would recommend!

    It was a great day today at the zoo. My son had a great time, we enjoyed it very much, it is very productive to have the membership because it’s cost affective and worth every penny.

    I love the whole of the Bronx Zoo in general... And Jungle World is no exception! I don't know if I can say anything specific to draw interest, except that it is a great experience for both children and adults (as the whole zoo is in general)...I wholeheartedly recommend ALL parts of the Bronx Zoo... It never gets old & you're never too old to enjoy it!

    The leopard was pacing around, seems like high levels of stress, would not support something like this. Although other exhibits were nice

    Great place to take the kids. Get ready for lots of walking. Place is huge and can't be seen in one day.

    It's beautiful and depressing to see some of these animals that belong in the freedom of the wild.

    I’ve gone to the zoo for as long as I can remember and as I’ve gotten older I’ve noticed that some animals shouldn’t be there, and I love seeing that there’s conservation for them but while going to the Jungle World Exhibit and seeing the leopard in such a small area and clearly pacing it was really sad and just doesn’t make sense why keep other animals with a wide open space but literally put a leopard in a tank with only a single row of “tree” to walk on. I mean I’m not an expert but it just seemed like it was stressed just pacing all day.
