Rainforest exhibit opens at zoo

Visitors will be able to explore every level of rainforest life

Visitors to London Zoo are being given a taste of South America with the opening of a new exhibit.

The Clore Rainforest Lookout exhibition features tropical animals from the continent including endangered monkeys and marmosets.

The display will "bring down the barriers between animals and visitors" by creating a basement-to-rooftop rainforest under a translucent roof.

The Clore Duffield Foundation funded £1m towards the exhibition.
