The Indian gharial is related to the crocodilians. A critically endangered species, it used to occur in the rivers of Pakistan and Myanmar. Today, it is estimated that fewer than 200 Indian gharials are left in the wild, mostly in India, and a small number in Nepal and Bangladesh.
River Safari is proud to house the extremely rare and unique Indian gharial. Shant, our male Indian Gharial lives in the Ganges River exhibit of River Safari.

The giant freshwater stingray is the largest freshwater fish in the world. Very little is know about this elusive fish which was described by scientists only recently, in 1990.
This giant can be found mainly in the Mekong and Chao Phraya river systems.
The Mekong River Exhibit at River Safari is home to three giant freshwater stingrays. We are proud to be involved in a pioneering research project with Chulalongkorn University, Thailand to study giant freshwater stingrays in the wild and contribute to the scientific knowledge of these giants.

For six months every year, seasonal rains cause an enormous rise in the water level of the Amazon Basin.
