The River Safari Wildlife Park, Singapore


The River Safari is one of the world's largest repositories of river-dwelling animals. It is divided into two zones - Rivers of the World and Wild Amazonia. The former is home to animals hailing from the rivers Mississippi, Mekong, Yangtze, Ganges, Nile, and Congo. It also houses the Giant Panda Forest where giant pandas Kai Kai and Jia Jia live plus two adorable red pandas. The bio-dome simulates their natural climate and is kept at a cool 18 - 22 degrees C. 





 
Wild Amazonia features the Amazon Flooded Forest which houses the world's largest freshwater aquarium. In here, you get the chance to marvel at over eighteen majestic animal species like the graceful manatee, striking red-tailed catfish and the arapaima with its colorful, armor-like scales.
