Crocodiles sink teeth into new home
The three Morelet’s crocodiles have a purpose-built enclosure that offers visitors a ‘walkover’ experience, giving close-up views of the reptiles, which can grow up to nine feet long.
It signals the end of the first phase of a £720,000 refurbishment scheme at the popular attraction which has been funded by Leeds City Council along with a donation from the Ziff family, who are continuing their long-standing patronage of Tropical World which dates back to the 1980s. Said Edward Ziff : “We are delighted to continue our support to Roundhay Park, the Canal Gardens and Tropical World.”
