CHANNELING THEIR INNER DAVID ATTENBOROUGH AT THE ARABIAN WILDLIFE CENTRE SHARJAH

Budding conservationists will love learning about the different animals and ecosystems of the Arabian Peninsula here. Housing the world’s largest collection of Arabian animals – such as oryx antelopes, Arabian leopards, and flamingos – the zoo creates open and convincing examples of the animals’ natural habitats. In the main building, nature-lovers can see the animals through large panel windows, and enjoy the indoor exhibits and enclosures. For a particularly memorable sight, visitors can head to the snake section, as the colours and abundance of nature’s most slithery specimens creates quite a spectacle.
