Animals kept

The Australian territory is partly tropical and partly temperate. Only in its north-eastern part there are some rainfall virgin forests which are linked up with eucalyptus forests further in the south-east direction. Extensive deserts cover the central part of this continent. Only in this region members of the ancient subclass of oviparous mammals occur together with a wide spectrum of marsupials. Bennet´s wallaby represents Australian fauna in our ZOO.

In the Brno zoological garden there are 785 animals belonging to 210 species of amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. We keep animals from all continents with the exception of Antarctica.
