Added on April 23, 2025: Starting April 24th (Thursday), the cohabitation of Kayoran and Sui will be considered "normal exhibit".

Since Thursday, April 3rd, we have been practicing letting Kayoran and Sui live together in the exercise area. There have been no problems due to fighting, and they have been seen sniffing each other's genitals and playing together. Therefore, we will now make "cohabitation" the regular exhibit.

　Hours: From 9:30 AM until closing time
* Animals will be allowed to move freely between the indoor area and the large enclosure. However, the indoor area will not be open to the public.
　place Large pasture

Depending on the animals' condition, we may discontinue cohabitation or change the time without prior notice.
We ask for your understanding and cooperation in observing quietly.
Cero will be allowed to move freely between the indoor area and the small enclosure.
