On our 2017 visit we were told that the marine iguanas were being held off-site (and off-display) The Galapagos land iguanas were on- show though, but they may have outgrown their vivarium by now.
With the cooperation of the esb/eep izoo will be exhibiting Indian gharials starting from August 1. The translation engines translation seems wonky so I can't tell what they mean by 2029. Security Check
This isn’t about the park but its owner who also is an importer, breeder, and a broker had some radiated tortoises stolen from his facility. The animals are microchipped.

Some breeding-results at IZoo : - 13 Aldabra giant tortoises hatched ( the species has bred now for the 8th year in a row ) - Madagascar spider tortoise hatched - Leopard tortoise hatched - African spurred tortoise hatched - Sakishima grass lizard ( Takydromus dorsalis ) hatched - Chinese crocodile lizards ( 7 ) born - Cuban ground iguanas 2 clutches ( ? ) of 12 and 16 eggs ( translation was not completly clear ) - Red-crowned crane hatched : https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=279461683432375
I really wonder where most of these animals will end up considering that izoo isn't accredited by the JAZA and it's creator has ties with brokers and the rest of the trade most people here wouldn't approve of.
That might be true, but just look at their track record with breeding rare and endangered herps. That puts many a zoo's reptile collection to shame.
From an undiscovered clutch in the enclosure of the Leopard tortoises a young has been hatched. It has been taken out of the parents-enclosure and is now housed in a seperated enclosure : https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=233990607939071
Sounds like this zoo has quite a breeding record for conservation, many of these species are endangered.
At least 2 Yellow-spotted monitors - Varanus gouldii horni - hatched At least 7 Black pond turtles - Geoclemys hamiltonii - hatched Red-crowned cranes have laid 2 eggs A Pancake tortoise hatched
Are the Galapagos iguanas (marine or ground) now in exhibit? This center looks very interesting. What rare species, especially Japanese or Asian, are there here?
@Sicarius has recently been there and has uploaded images of the land iguanas so they are on display. He may also know any other species kept there as well.
