Well,Ive decideed to jazz up my topic will what I call a.....
Zoo History!!This is just going from a zoos origin to its present state(the history part:
: )Its similar to elefan's Zoo Makeover,(dont worry, elefan said i could do something similar to it)but it just starts from a zoos,origin.
Ok,enough explaining,my first zoo will be....
Noinberg ZooThe year is 1911, The World's Fair ended a week ago, and various(sp?) exotic animals ranging from the americas to Africa are still on display from the Animal Exepition(sp?(again:rolleyes: )).Though the fair was a huge success,there was not enough money to transport the animals to New York for an animal show that was premiering in 3 days,thus the city of Noinberg bought the animal collection and contructed a sort of "zoo" in the area that was occupied by the fair.Thus, the Noinberg Zoo was formed!
Following a new method (created at Carl Hagenbeck's tiergarten in Germany) of displaying the animals outdoors,great paddocks were made for the hoofed animals,the bears had rocky,mountianous enclosures, and the elephants had there own House built in the southern corner of the zoo.All of this was centerd around a huge,artificial mountain,which became the icon for the zoo.The zoo also housed a male and a baby female,giant panda:cool:
Now,for the pics!Heres the entrance to the zoo,remember,this is based in the early 1900's.
