Night Safari
Another unforgettable experience for animal lovers is a visit to Singapore’s Night Safari. Not only does it do a good job of displaying tropical animals by night, it also has shows and dining outlets.Animals found here include the bharal (a blue sheep found mainly in Tibet, at elevations of 3,500-5,500 metres), sambar (one of the largest Asian deers), one-horned rhinoceros (there are less than 2,000 left in the wild.), gir lions (there are only about 200 individuals living in the protected Gir forest in Gujarat, India), striped hyenas (the only hyena species found in Asia), Malayan tigers (there are about only 2,000 individuals in the nature reserves and national parks of Malaysia and Thailand) and Asian elephants (don’t forget to say hi to Chawang, the largest and heaviest animal in Singapore Zoo and Night Safari).
Night Safari presents a total of 1,040 animals from 120 species of which 29% are threatened species. Visitors can tour around the park either on foot, via three walking trails, or by tram.
