- Central Park Zoo.
"WCS's jewel-like zoo in Manhattan has existed only since 1988 - yet its
full history stretches back to the last century. The evolution of this
city landmark launched the modern trend in urban zoos around the nation:
the transformation of cages and menagerie-style zoos into natural habitat
exhibits that educate, involve, and connect people to our natural
world...From a steamy rain forest to an icy Antarctic penguin habitat, the
zoo leads visitors through tropic, temperate and polar regions to
encounter fascinating animals - from tiny leafcutter ants to tremendous
polar bears. The Tisch Children's Zoo, added in 1997, lets little animal
lovers meet gentle creatures up close. Year-round education classes and
innovative public programs - including the zoo's "Wildlife Theater" --
encourage all ages to learn more about our natural world, and become
involved in its protection."
