Founder Species at your zoo(s)

[Meaghan Edwards]

Inspired by the thread in the UK section, which species at your zoo are still exhibited, since the zoo first opened?

I'll start with the Toronto Zoo (to my knowledge):

African Dwarf Crocodile
Ostrich
White Rhino
River Hippo
Emu
Demoiselle Crane (the very first animal to come to the zoo was Marg)
African Elephant
Western Lowland Gorilla
Sumatran Orangutan
Amur Tiger
Lion-tailed macaque
Masai Giraffe
Bactrian Camel

You can also add Nicobar Pigeons.

Indian Rhino, Pygmy Hippo, Beaver, Otter as well I think?

I *think* African Lions and cheetahs are others, along with the Tahr.
