There are over 2,500 animals currently housed at the Night Safari, spanning more than 130 species, 37 percent of which are endangered. It’s completely separate from the Singapore Zoo (which was opened in 1973) – so no, the animals there aren’t moved over from the zoo each night (according to the staff, this is one of their most commonly asked questions). Aside from nocturnal animals, there are also a range of night-blooming fauna on display, including the chempaka, orange blossoms, pigeon orchids and butterfly ginger.
