exotarium seems to be a relatively common word in European collections now -- does it stem from Frankfurt Zoo's buildling, or was it an existing word before the Zoo used it?

To my everlasting disappointment, the one time I visited Frankfurt Zoo (in 2004) I didn't go into the Exotarium because I didn't have enough money on me for the extra entrance fee :(
 
@Chlidonias: I don't know the answer to your first question, sorry.

But I wonder about your second phrase. Frankfurt Zoo has indeed had an extra fee for the Exotarium. But IF(!) I remember correctly, this is gone more then 8 years ago (it is now included in the ordinary entrance fee). Are you sure about the time?
 
What other collections use the term exotarium? I've never heard it used anywhere else.
