Created by Swimming Spaghetti Monster
Dangerous Waters and Shark Waters used to be two different sections, each located on one side of Niörd Seafari. Both these sections were the first to get an upgrade and were combined into one magnificent building. Here swim giant sea monsters as bull- and tiger sharks side by side with their tiny cousins. Put your fingers in the water of our small touchpool and experience what an European flounder feels like before it ends up on your diner plate.
But the main star of this building is the one that doesn't entirely fit in with the rest of Niörds animal collection.
Rescued from poachers along the northern coast of Australia. Then purchased by a small zoo on the European mainland where he was harassed by his roommates. But now safe in Niörd.
Come and say hello to Boris, our 6 m long, three-legged saltwater crocodile.
