Description

The Crocodile Zoo (Danish: Krokodille Zoo) is a zoo on the Danish island of Falster. It is located just to the southwest of Gundslevmagle, northeast of Eskilstrup, towards the northern centre of the island. Established in 2000, the zoo has the world's largest collection of crocodilians (crocodiles and relatives) with all 23 existing species on display (same as St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park).[2] This include the only Orinoco crocodiles outside the Americas, which are part of a breeding program involving US zoos and the Venezuelan government.[1] Their male black caiman is the largest crocodilian in Scandinavia. Their Nile crocodile Samson, which currently is on loan to Bergen Aquarium, formerly held the record.[3]
