Burgers' Rimba, a taste of the tropics in Arnhem
Malaysian bears are looking for honey, siamangs are swinging high up in the trees, reticulated pythons of up to 2 meters in length are hiding somewhere on the ground, and suddenly you find yourself face to face with a Sumatran tiger!
Since 14 May 2008, Burgers’ Zoo has a brand new animal project located on two hectares: Burgers’ Rimba. ‘Rimba’ is short for ‘rimba raya’, which is Malaysian for ‘tropical rainforest’. Apes, deer, cattle, tigers, snakes, monitor lizards and the Malaysian bear can then be seen in their own living environment.

When you visit Burgers' Zoo you can picture yourself in the jungle, get a feel of the desert life and walk in the Ocean underneath the rays. All this in just one single day.
