London Zoo

Welcome to London Zoo. You will see a lot of exotic animals here: giraffes and elephants, lions and polar bears, zebras and crocodiles. Also you will meet many baby animals: see the young birds stretch their wings. And watch out when "Junior Jumbo" walks. This little elephant likes to walk. And those funny little monkeys are always full of fun: swinging, jumping, chasing and chattering. We have over 5,000 insects, big and small, walking, jumping, sleeping.

Your visit will be safe, because all animals live in big comfortable cages. Zoo keepers feed animals twice a day. And when it is feeding time at the zoo, look at those sharks diving for their daily catch. They say feeding time is the most interesting in the zoo.

Many scientists work at our zoo. They learn how to treat and breed animals. Trip to our zoo will be greatly interesting for you. But don't bring your pet with you because wild animals can attack it and don't feed animals, because they eat only special food.
