  • The Bronx Zoo (also historically the Bronx Zoological Park and the Bronx Zoological Gardens) is a zoo within Bronx Park in the Bronx, New York. It is one of the largest zoos in the United States by area and is the largest metropolitan zoo in the United States by area, comprising 265 acres (107 ha) of park lands and naturalistic habitats separated by the Bronx River. On average, the zoo has 2.15 million visitors each year as of 2009. The zoo's original permanent buildings, known as Astor Court, were designed as a series of Beaux-Arts pavilions grouped around the large circular sea lion pool. The Rainey Memorial Gates were designed by sculptor Paul Manship in 1934 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.
    Today, the Bronx Zoo is world-renowned for its large and diverse animal collection, and its award-winning exhibitions. The zoo is part of an integrated system of four zoos and one aquarium managed by the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), and it is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA).

    The zoo has two types of displays: free exhibits accessible with a General Admission ticket, and premium exhibits which require additional fees.

    Definitely one of the absolute best zoos I've ever been to but I find it challenging to see everything in the zoo in one go without rushing

    As someone who has been to this zoo that I love going to ever since I was a kid, I absolutely adore how up to date the Zoo manages to hold up with their animal exhibits plus their message of conservation never fails to inspire me to this day.
    Thank you for showing my favorite zoo, Tom! ^^

    I'm 75 years old, born and raised New Yorker. Made a career in the military and retired in Virginia Beach, Va. My parents took me and my sister to the zoo in the 50's and 60's. A lot of memories but was in sticker shock seeing the admission prices. OMG!!!!!!!!!!

    • @TomsRoadTrippin
      @TomsRoadTrippin  7 месяцев назад

      Yeah the prices have jumped a lot, most zoos are around $15 to $20. It's a fantastic zoo so it was worth the admission for me. Thank You for sharing the memories with me. 😊

    Nice Zoo! For the zoo in my country, the sea lion exhibit is now using the manatee's old exhibit (they moved to River Safari in 2013 and the same exhibit was always used for showtimes but not no more) and the penguin enclosure is just beside the sea lion exhibit.

    • @TomsRoadTrippin
      @TomsRoadTrippin  Год назад +1

      Lots of zoo's move animals around to other facilities. Either for breeding or for better suited habitats. Plus it frees up habitats for new animal types or more space.

    Heading to NYC in September for my birthday. Not sure whether to do the Central Park Zoo or Bronx Zoo, but from the looks of it, it looks as if you need half a day to complete this one. Got a few months to decide but the Bronx Zoo looked great! New subscriber! Enjoyed it!
