What percentage of the exhibits are viewed from indoors? I've heard that this facility is truly world-class, with rare species, outstanding animal habitats, and even 30+ off-show Arabian leopards! How long does it take to tour?
100%. Every exhibit is viewed from indoors.
The visitor never steps out of the main building, which is convenient given the extreme temperatures of the UAE's deserts. The adjoining breeding centre has a brilliant species list, and they do a lot of good work. To take a good look at most things, it takes just over an hour. I went round twice though, as it meant I saw more of the reptiles and nocturnal animals active. I was also moving quite fast because it was getting dark and I didn't have travel arrangements for my return to Dubai.
