乌龟之家

The seven rock-walled enclosures that make up Tortoise Shell-ter were designed to provide the highest standards of animal welfare for our chelonian collection. To recreate the animals’ natural habitats, much thought went into planning and sourcing for the specific plants needed. Each climate-controlled micro-habitat comes replete with special lighting, heating with temperature gradient and humidity control, creating the ideal home away from home for their inhabitants.

The tortoises share their homes with other reptiles, including panther chameleons, veiled chameleons and knob-tail geckos. These species were hand-picked for their compatibility with the chelonians and keepers monitor to ensure the harmony is maintained. The resultant inter-species interaction is what the tortoises would experience naturally in the wild and serves as a form of enrichment for them, while providing a more varied viewing experience for guests.
