NATURA ARTIS MAGISTRA IN AMSTERDAM

Two unique assignments were realised at Artis, the Amsterdam zoo: enclosures for red pandas and wallabies, respectively. On the basis of highly specific requirements, optimal habitats were created for these animals. But it was also important to let visitors get as close to them as possible. For that reason, the enclosure for the red pandas, who like to remain high in the trees, is situated below ground level, while the wallabies’ enclosure is separated from the rest of the park by a low wall and a trench. A path cutting through the wallaby exhibit allows visitors to walk freely among the animals.
