Tropical Rainforest

The Tropical Rainforest exhibit recreates a humid jungle environment with cascading waterfalls, lush vegetation, and freshwater species from the Amazon Basin. Piranhas, poison dart frogs, and freshwater stingrays showcase the incredible biodiversity of the world's largest tropical rainforest.

The Amazon Rainforest produces approximately 20% of the world's oxygen and harbors an estimated 10% of all known species. Deforestation for agriculture and cattle ranching threatens this critical ecosystem, with an area the size of a football field cleared every minute.
