The Orange-bellied Leafbird (Chloropsis hardwickii lazulina) has been part of Copenhagen Zoo's diverse avian collection since at least 2009. Visitors can observe this colorful bird in the Tropical House, an environment designed to replicate its natural habitat.
While specific details about individual leafbirds or breeding programs at the zoo are not publicly available, Copenhagen Zoo actively participates in European breeding cooperations for endangered species, such as the EAZA Ex Situ Programmes (EEP). This involvement underscores the zoo's commitment to conservation and biodiversity.
