The Abyssinian ground hornbills at Copenhagen Zoo are part of the African Aviaries exhibit, inaugurated in 2004. This enclosure is designed to replicate the birds' natural habitat, providing an environment conducive to their well-being.

As of 2006, the zoo's collection included a pair of these hornbills, consisting of one male and one female. The female was identified by her distinctive blue throat skin, a characteristic feature differentiating her from the male.

Copenhagen Zoo is committed to conservation efforts, including the breeding of endangered species and participation in international programs. While specific details about the Abyssinian ground hornbill breeding program at the zoo are not available, the institution's overall dedication to conservation suggests active involvement in such initiatives.
