The Singapore Zoo Story

1970s

Singapore Zoological Gardens (renamed Singapore Zoo) officially opens in 1973. We receive our first millionth visitor in Nov 1974, and welcome the first orangutan birth in Jan 1975.

1980s

The Zoo wins Singapore Tourist Promotion Board’s “Best Managed Tourist Attraction” award during the 1st Tourism Awards. Breakfast with an Orangutan begins. Refreshed over the years, the popular signature wildlife experience is now known as Breakfast in the Wild.

1990s

We witnessed various animal births and exhibit openings. Inuka, the first Polar Bear in the tropics was born in Dec 1990 and Fragile Forest, the first immersive exhibit was opened in Nov 1998.

2000s

New attractions were introduced such as the world’s first free-ranging Orangutan exhibit in Mar 2006 and Rainforest KidzWorld in Nov 2008. We also held the first Safari Zoo Run in memory of Ah Meng who passed on in February 2008.

2010s

A bundle of joy as we witness our first giraffe birth in Aug 2015, Singapore’s jubilee anniversary of independence. Opening of new impressive exhibits such as Frozen Tundra in 2013 and RepTopia in 2017 for more up-close wildlife encounters.

Present

We celebrate Singapore Zoo's 50th anniversary. With more than 4,200 animals of over 300 species, Singapore Zoo continues to offer many opportunities to experience the wonders of wildlife.

Our Future

Our aspiration is to be carbon neutral by 2024. We will continue to take the One Plan approach to species conservation by working hand-in-hand with field conservationists, NGOs and policy makers to help save threatened species.
