Zoo news
Be well informed about life at the zoo!
We regularly receive inquiries about whether you would like to donate plants to us. Until now, we have had limited capacity for this, but now the opportunity is finally here. Although the Biodome plant collection is almost completely finished, there are still a few places where a special plant can find a new home.
In mid-summer, visitors will be able to use the urban oasis opening in the central hall of the Biodome, which will then be available as a permanent attraction. In this urban oasis, 13,000 tropical and subtropical plants and several rare and special animal species, such as hanuman langurs and Bali mynas, can be observed.

The Budapest Zoo and Botanical Garden covers 11 hectares and includes a number of animal houses and pens. To find what you’re looking for easily, use the zoo map. You can easily zoom in and navigate through the digital interface, or download it so you always have it with you.
The most popular way to support the Zoo is through the symbolic adoption of animals. Organized by the Zoo Foundation, thousands of people become honorary foster parents each year.
The Hungarian Bird Rescue Foundation was established by the Budapest Zoo in 2009. Every year, we save thousands of wild birds, small mammals, and reptiles from certain death. Hedgehogs burned in brush fires, birds fallen from nests, animals hit by cars or poisoned—all can count on us. More information about the rescue centre.
Ready for the future!
The Pannon Park is the largest of the new developments at the Zoo. The almost 5-hectare show complex will be built entirely on land taken over from the redundant Amusement Park. The Pannon Park will be themed to evoke the world of the former Pannonian wilderness, with a unique visitor experience, cutting-edge zoo exhibit technology, innovative and forward-thinking architecture and technology.
