Tropical Asia Zone July 9, 2011

The dense tropical forests of Asia hold some of the world's most endangered species including Asian elephants, orangutans, Malayan tapirs and more. Our Tropical Asia zone features two areas: the award-winning Elephant Forest and Trail of Vines featuring orangutans, siamangs and tapirs. This unique part of the world has some of the most densely human populated cities as well as the last vestiges of wild habitats--a balancing act that is increasingly putting animals on the brink of extinction. See the amazing animals from Asia and discover how you can help protect them.
