The Schmiding Zoo spans an area of 13 hectares and showcases the wildlife of various regions of the world. Visitors can expect to encounter a diverse range of animals, including giraffes, monkeys, broad-mouthed rhinos, crocodiles, red pandas, Austria's only gorillas, Siberian tigers, sloths, and exotic birds. This diversity makes the zoo a fascinating destination for wildlife enthusiasts and families alike.
The Schmiding Zoo is actively involved in conservation breeding programs. This commitment to conservation has resulted in the birth of tigers in 2007, a Rothschild giraffe in 2014, and the first rhino in Austria in 2012. These successful breeding programs underscore the zoo's commitment to wildlife conservation and provide visitors with the unique opportunity to see these rare and endangered species.
Adjacent to the Schmiding Zoo are the Aquazoo and Arthropodenzoo Schmiding, which together offer a total indoor area of 3500 m². The Aquazoo houses Austria's largest marine aquarium and also features an indoor adventure playground. The Arthropodenzoo consists of a terrarium with a butterfly room. These additional attractions provide a comprehensive and diverse experience for visitors.
The Evolution Museum, opened in 2017, offers a thematic continuation of the zoo experience. The museum vividly illustrates the physical and psychological evolution of humanity, up to the development of artificial intelligence. This educational attraction provides a unique perspective on human evolution and is a valuable addition to the zoo visit.
