Fragile Forest exhibit at the Singapore Zoo mixes rainforest species from all over the world under one meshed dome. Here, you see a 2-toed Sloth feeding alongside Malayan Flying Foxes. They share the space with lemurs, tree roos, parrots, green iguanas, hundreds of butterflies and more.

The flying foxes get a bit bossy around feeding time and sometimes do "bully" the tree roos and sloths, but there have been no injuries.

All the animals get along pretty well actually. The space is large enough for each species to have its own niche.
