About Jurong Bird Park

Conservation

With a commitment towards conservation, we have successfully bred threatened species such as the Bali mynah, blue-throated macaw and other significant species such as the black palm cockatoo, hyacinth macaw, red-fronted macaw and the red-tailed black cockatoo.

In fact, Jurong Bird Park recorded the world’s first successful hatching of the black hornbill, great Indian hornbill and twelve-wired bird of paradise in captivity. For the latter, we were awarded the Breeders’ Award from the American Pheasant and Waterfowl Society in 2001.

Education

The opening of our Bird Discovery Centre sets an immersive environment for guests to learn about the avian world, from the life stages of a bird to exploring how birds command mastery of the sky.

Aside from our facilities, the park also hosts a variety of educational programmes for students. These comprise day trips, overnight camps, guided tours, workshops and wildlife publications.

World-class habitats

Jurong Bird Park is one of the most renowned bird sanctuaries around the globe.

Waterfall Aviary is the park’s largest walk-in aviary, housing over 600 free-flying birds from 50 species, including the endangered sun conures, common crowned pigeons and Von der Decken’s hornbills. Set against a 30-metre high waterfall, it’s also the world’s first and tallest man-made waterfall.

Another noteworthy exhibit is African Treetops, a 3,000 square metre and nine-storey high flight aviary. The aviary features African birds, with over 300 birds from over 30 species, and is a popular highlight among visitors who get to feed starlings and turacos while walking across suspended bridges.

Unique encounters

Our Breeding and Research Centre gives guests a rare, behind-the-scenes peek into the growth process of birds, from incubation to weaning. Visitors can walk in and view the work of avian keepers, giving them the chance to walk away with a deeper appreciation of avian wildlife and the park’s conservation efforts.
