Tropical World, Letterkenny, County Donegal, first opened in 2011 featuring magical tropical butterflies free flying in a tropical jungle with exotic birds and reptiles. It has since become County Donegal’s first licenced zoo and has grown into a spectacular small species zoo with added attractions which are 80% under cover.
