May 2009-This is 1 of 4 new (not really new as they were built in 1915) statues at the zoo. More info on the statues here: http://www.zoochat.com/578/selig-zoo-statues-information-78125/

They've been planning the showing of these antique statues since before the new entrance was completed. I was glad to see them finally in place on my last visit. I believe there are a few more still to come, Elephants and maybe other animal scultures.

Thanks for sharing with everyone Mario.:cool:
 
I took pictures of the four statues, but the other three came out blurry. I'll take photos next week and post them here.

I got to see them when they were back stage, so I was also excited to see them installed. Hopefully they'll install the elephant statues by Pachyderm Forest.

That would be a great place for the Elephant statues, and for some reason never even crossed my mind! I'll bet that's exactly what's in store for them.
