In continuing with my ongoing Triangle Zoo project, I am going to be posting a masterplan-esque thread inspired by @Haliaeetus. Introduction: The zoo is in Durham County, North Carolina. It sits on a plot of ~500 acres. In summer, temperatures get well into the 90s, and in winter, temperatures...

Hello everyone, I'm creating a zoo animal database with all the species from (hopefully) all North American zoos. I have access to a few public species lists but if anyone has any private species lists that they wouldn't mind sharing, please send them to me! Thanks!

Hi everyone, the point of this thread is to talk about zoos you've been to and what you think they could do to improve. I'll go first, with my home zoo, the North Carolina Zoo. The North Carolina Zoo is one of if not the largest zoo by land area in the country, so all the animals have adequate...

Do garden eels breed in aquaria?

What types of local animals have you see in or near your local zoo? I don't mean native species on display in an exhibit, but wild animals roaming free on zoo grounds. I have personally seen the following at the North Carolina Zoo: White-tailed deer Eastern gray squirrel Raccoon Feral cat...

Not sure where to put this so I will put this thread here. I like to make fake zoos..often I can’t think of a name for a exhibit or something..so I thought let’s make a thread where people can post names for exhibits for people who could need ideas for exhibit names. Here are some exhibit...

Here, we'll talk about animal species that are no longer kept at Brazilian zoos, aquariums and breeding facilities.

Happy New Year all, I browsed through the 2021 US threads and didn't see any new thread for the zoo so figured I'd start it off since I made my first visit today: -The Maleo/Pink Pigeon enclosure is currently closed and gutted for renovations. -Ocellated Turkeys and a Keel-Billed Toucan have...

I’ve been wondering, what’s the worst state for zoos. So anyone got any ideas? Oh first rules: I won’t be counting states outside of the US just because I don’t want to be confused. One bad zoo doesn’t mean it takes the whole state down. I’m looking for a state which has not many zoos and well...

Are there any zoos or aviaries in Indonesia that has ever kept Maleos (Macrocephalon maleo) in captivity? From what I heard they fare pretty good since they're flightless birds. I saw this pic on Jakarta Globe showing several Maleos in a cage, but I don't know where:

This is gonna be a little journey for me, as I want to chronicle and review every YouTuber who has built a zoo, petting zoo, animal farm, drive-thru safari, aquarium, etc., and has uploaded the building process onto YouTube. Some rules for myself: 1. It does not matter how big the channel is...
