London Zoo's Tiger Territory is home to our Sumatran tiger family and our gibbon duo. 

Visitors to Tiger Territory will embark on a journey through an Indonesian habitat, coming face-to-face with our Sumatran tigers through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, before hanging out with our Northern white-cheeked gibbons

About Tiger Territory 

This habitat has been designed with ZSL’s team of keepers, conservationists and experts to ensure that it perfectly suits the needs of our animals. For example, tigers are excellent climbers and like to observe their terrain from a towering vantage point, so there are tall trees and high feeding poles to encourage natural predatory behaviours.

Tiger Territory will inform and inspire a generation of people to treasure tigers and gibbons, and understand their role in their survival. It will also help fund ZSL’s conservation work in the field, providing a lifeline for years to come.
