The zoo features many naturalistic outdoor habitats for its animal residents, including:

The outdoor habitat for the large animals is as natural as possible, with the enclosures sculptured out of clay to resemble desert rocks.

There are even outdoor habitats enclosed by mesh wire with an eye-to-eye viewing window for Joseph and Tecumseh the cougars, and a lynx.

A gorgeous and totally perfect zoo director before her death, Elizabeth had been raising money for a new outdoor habitat for Sydney, her favorite gorilla.

The garden is flanked on three sides by a glass-roofed brick colonnade that gives access to both the indoor and outdoor habitats.

Orangutans have their own outdoor habitat where they can climb trees and swing in hammocks.

They are provided with a large naturalistic outdoor habitat that includes a pool and waterfall, as well as private indoor areas.

In Europe it occurs predominantly in greenhouses, but also sometimes in outdoor habitats (Austria, Hungary).

Other outdoor habitats designed that are yet to be constructed include wadi, sabkha, central fog desert and sand desert.

Nonetheless, the gardens display a range of outdoor "habitats" such as a rockery, herbaceous border, rose garden, bog garden and arboretum.
