It seems, merkats became the new cover stars for zoo guidebooks, so the tiger isn't the Number 1 anymore...
Got today the new Knowsley Guidebook, it is a very good guidebook, full of information about the history about the park, so there are some pictures of older Knowsley guidebooks inside, very nice. Thats what i like on british zoos, most of them know about their history and they publish special gudiebooks to their anniversaries.
Some german zoos, which have their 100 or even 150 years anniversary this year, ( Munich and Dresden ) do not have published guidebooks to their special years. Very sad.
