Unknown Zoo

I own a copy too, but it is still marked as "unknown zoo". I could not find out which elephant nor which zoo.
 
I've relayed this question to the german boards, only one comment who mentions it reminds him of an old enclosure of Burgers' Zoo...

Is that a possibility?
 
The photo on this post card was apparently taken at MILANO ZOO (Giardino Zoologico di Milano) in Italy. As proof I just uploaded two scans in the photo gallery - Italy Other. Those two photos are from the leaflets I have in my collection. Of course in this particular case the leaflets are from Milano Zoo. The Brothers Molinar owned in Italy three zoos: Milano, Torino and Verona. In my collection I do have many leaflets and maps (and one guide book) from those zoos. Very often one photo was printed in different zoos leaflets - so it is hard to say if such particular photo was taken in Milano or Torino. Really this could be confused. But this is not the case with elephants. In Verona Zoo they never had elephants. And in Torino Zoo leaflets there are other elephant photos on quite different enclosure!
 
Yesterday that was my tought to.
Because I found this picture,
